One year ago, the British people voted for change — and today, we mark the first anniversary of a Labour government committed to delivering just that.
Over the past 12 months, we have begun to turn the page on 14 years of Tory chaos and decline.
And while it hasn’t been easy, and we know there is much more to do, our Plan for Change is already making a difference.
The first phase of this government was about taking immediate action to fix the foundations and stabilise our economy.
Because of this action, Britain had the highest growth of any G7 economy in the first quarter of this year.
Interest rates have been cut four times, lowering people’s mortgages.
Wages are rising faster than prices.
NHS waiting lists are falling, with the delivery of four million extra NHS appointments.
And breakfast clubs are being rolled out across the country, to give kids a healthy start to the day and to put more money in parents’ pockets.
Yes, we know the job is far from done and we won’t sugarcoat the scale of the challenge.
But if the first phase of this government was about taking immediate action to fix the foundations and clean up the mess the Tories left behind, the second phase is now about making working people better off.

And as our focus shifts firmly to the future, we are going further and faster to deliver the change we promised.
While the Conservatives and Reform UK risk the economy by making unfunded promises they cannot keep, we are working tirelessly to improve living standards for people across the country.
Striving to build a renewed Britain, where your hard work is rewarded.
Where your NHS is there when you need it.
Where your community is safe, and your future is secure.
That is the country we’re building together.
This is not about quick fixes. It’s about rebuilding Britain — to make it fairer, stronger, and more secure.
To put money back in working people’s pockets and build a better future together.
