British resources. British jobs. British security.
This deal will help supply our defence, nuclear and aerospace industries from one of the world's largest tungsten deposits, right here in the UK.
That’s how we're backing British business & delivering growth in every postcode.
🪨It's not all that widely known, but Britain has one of the world's biggest tungsten resources.
And tungsten is one of the world's most important metals. Problem is, the mine has been out of action for years.
You may recall our film on this last year👇
Well now, some news...
For as long as it takes, Britain will stand with Ukraine in their fight against Putin's illegal invasion.
On their Independence Day today, we salute the Ukrainian people for their bravery, and fearless determination to fight for their future.
Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦
Congratulations to everyone receiving their GCSEs today.
And if you're disappointed, remember that one set of results does not define your future or your worth.
There are many paths to success, and we're working to make sure everyone has the chance to fulfil their potential.
Labour is giving good, local businesses a bit of breathing space.
We’re bringing down the cost of business with our cut in rates for pubs, clubs and live music venues.
Thanks to the Chantry Tap in Rotherham for having me! ���
Proud to be out campaigning with #YoungLabour for John Roberts, our great local candidate in Penistone East’s by-election on Thursday. A big ‘thank you’ to all the Silkstone residents who gave their time to talk with us today
The UK was the fastest-growing economy in the G7 in the first half of the year. We know families and businesses are concerned about conflict in the Middle East - and this government is giving people a little breathing space, strengthening resilience and bringing hope back.
We’re bringing in tough new sanctions to choke off the funds to Putin’s war machine.
The UK will continue to step up our action against Russia and its shadow fleet, to protect our national security and stand with Ukraine.
Ukraine's fight is our fight.
The UK is taking further action against Russia, with new sanctions targeting those behind the Kremlin's war effort.
We will continue increasing pressure on Russia for as long as it takes.
This investment will help reduce reliance on gas, lower energy bills and strengthen our energy security.
We’re backing a more resilient future for Britain.

I want every government department to be a growth department.
We’ve made it a leading priority to buy British, not just if possible, but by design. So that every procurement pound supports British jobs, British apprenticeships and British innovation.

This will be an active, hands-on Government that puts British interests first.
Giving breathing space to those feeling financial strain, and making Britain more resilient to shocks like the Iran War.

Brilliant win for @bevcraig in Greater Manchester. A campaign filled with hope, ideas and optimism.
Strong local leaders like Bev are how we drive growth in every postcode. That’s why we’re pushing more power out of Westminster. Congratulations, Bev!
The Chancellor @JohnHealey_MP has commissioned the @OBR_UK to prepare an economic and fiscal forecast to be presented to @UKParliament alongside the Budget on Wednesday 28 October 2026.
“I hope he’ll see, like most other mayors see, that this is a big opportunity for them”
Chancellor @JohnHealey_MP responds to @BenHouchen’s suggestion he’d use new fiscal devolution to create a rebate scheme
My interview on behalf of the pool
For too long, places across the country have helped create growth without seeing enough of the rewards.
Today, we start to put that right.
Local areas will keep more of the money their communities help generate, giving them more power to invest in local priorities.
I promised to take power out of Westminster. I meant it.
For the first time ever, we’re giving Mayors a share of income tax so communities have more control over jobs, transport, housing and public services in their area.
I know what it’s like to be ignored by politicians in Westminster. I won’t make that same mistake as Prime Minister.
Investment backing British jobs, British firms and British skills.
To every young person across the country: there is a path for you in a re-industrialised Britain, and it starts with the apprenticeships we're supporting through this investment.
Today I’m announcing a major investment in our nuclear deterrent, supporting 22,000 apprenticeships.
Keeping this country safe is the first responsibility of any government - but security isn’t just about what we build, it’s about who builds it.
The submarines produced in Barrow protect us all, the jobs and apprenticeships they create change lives.
This is Britain - reindustrialised.
For too long, Britain has treated technical and academic paths differently.
With over a million young people not in education, employment or training, that must change.
We will value the hard hat as much as the graduation cap — backing skills and opportunity in every community.
You will see this as a determined drive that you have not seen before from a British government.
Buying British not “if possible”, but by design. So every procurement pound supports British jobs, British apprenticeships and British skills. https://t.co/9orb94QfLc
