Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer addresses the Civil Society Summit in London as he pledges to "rebalance power" between Government and society.

Outlining his Civil Society Covenant, Starmer said: "I'm really proud that we're launching that today, because that is really the hard yards of the 18 months since I made the promise.

"Because it recognises that national renewal requires everyone to play a vital role, not the hierarchical, sort of top down approach of the state working on its own, not the transactional approach of the markets left to their own devices, but a way forward in partnership together, giving civil society a home at the heart of Government."
