Andy Burnham has rejected calls to cut welfare spending to fund a major increase in defence spending. The PM said national security cannot come at the expense of social security, after Kemi Badenoch proposed £10bn in extra defence funding through welfare reforms. Burnham says his government will not choose between national security and social security, with a plan for defence spending to reach 3.5% of GDP by 2035.
