Things have been tough in Britain for a while. For many, life is still harder than it should be
0:07
You long for a bit more money in your pockets, a meal out, a holiday, the chance to make a special
0:14
family moment extra special. In 2026, the choices we've made will mean more people will begin to
0:24
feel positive change in your bills, your communities and your health service. But even more people
0:31
will feel once again a sense of hope, a belief that things can and will get better. Feel that
0:39
the promise of renewal can become a reality and my government will make it that reality
0:46
More police on the streets by March, energy bills down and the number of new health hubs
0:53
up in April, more funding for local communities. And with that change, decline will be reversed
1:03
That opportunity for you and pride in your community can be restored
1:10
I share the frustration about the pace of change The challenges we face were decades in the making And renewal is not an overnight job But putting our country back on a stable footing will become our strength Strength that means we
1:29
can support you with the cost of living. Railfares, prescription charges, fuel duty all frozen
1:37
£150 cut from your energy bills. A boost once again to the national minimum wage
1:47
A major cut to the cost of childcare. We are getting Britain back on track
1:54
By staying the course we will defeat the decline and division offered by others
2:00
For all the times that have been tough, I hope the festive period has brought good moments
2:08
precious time with your family, a chance to celebrate what's most important to you
2:15
I wish you more of those moments next year, when things start to feel easier
2:21
when politics shows it can help again, when Britain turns the corner
2:27
with our future now in our control. The real Britain will shine through more strongly
