Sir Keir Starmer will lay the keel for the next generation of Britain’s nuclear deterrent submarines when he visits the Cumbrian town on Thursday.
Keir Starmer will lay the keel for the next generation of Britain's nuclear deterrent submarines in Barrow-in-Furness, which he calls a "blueprint" for UK growth through increased defence spending. The town will be named "Royal Port of Barrow" by the King in recognition of its role in submarine building. The Government is increasing defence spending and investing in technical education in Barrow to support this industry.
