AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Labour Revolt Hits the King’s Speech: Keir Starmer’s “stronger and fairer” agenda was delivered in the House of Lords while the real drama stayed inside Westminster, with reports Health Secretary Wes Streeting is preparing to resign and trigger a leadership challenge, and Angela Rayner saying she’s been cleared by HMRC—raising the stakes after Labour’s local election drubbing. Markets Watch Politics: UK borrowing costs and gilts moved on the leadership talk, even as the State Opening tried to project stability. Economy Still Surprises: Official figures show GDP grew 0.3% in March and 0.6% in Q1, with services, construction and manufacturing all up—though economists warn the Iran-war shock could bite later. Online Safety Crackdown: Ofcom fined a suicide forum provider £950,000 under the Online Safety Act after concerns it was linked to more than 130 UK deaths. World Cup Flag Rules: Government guidance clarifies when England, Scotland and other permitted flags can be flown at home and on vehicles, with fines possible for breaches.
