The prime minister will give a speech in central London in which he will lay out what he believes to be at stake in the next election, as he warns that the UK faces threats from international conflict, migration and technology.
The speech, which aides say Sunak has planned for some time, is an attempt to shift the political focus away from the turmoil that has engulfed the Conservative party in recent years and helped give Labour a 20-point poll lead.
He is due to say: "I have bold ideas that can change our society for the better, and restore people's confidence and pride in our country. I feel a profound sense of urgency. Because more will change in the next five years than in the last 30.
"I'm convinced that the next few years will be some of the most dangerous yet most transformational our country has ever known." Sunak has endured a difficult fortnight as prime minister, seeing his party crash to heavy defeats in the local and mayoral elections and then watching Natalie Elphicke, one of his backbench MPs, defect to Labour.
