<p>Global Britain is an ambition and vision that will help secure our national security,
prosperity and influence. It is how we adjust positively to a changing world, demonstrating
our resolve to remain a big and influential player. It is also how we show that our
global engagement and leadership are fundamentally in the security and prosperity
interests of the British people.</p><p>The UK's influence is based on an array of
factors, including: the strength of our economy; our alliances and partnerships; UK
military, diplomatic and development capabilities; our permanent membership of the
UN Security Council; and, our broad soft-power assets. We will use these in a co-ordinated
way to deliver the vision of Global Britain: upholding the essential rules of a peaceful
world, working in partnership with old friends and new allies, projecting our values
and advancing UK interests.</p><p>We are investing in the capabilities we need to
drive forward this agenda. Our overseas network underpins our influence and we have
recently announced a network expansion of around 10 sovereign missions, and at least
250 diplomats.</p><p></p>
