Labour is planning to bring forward more than 35 bills as part of its first King’s Speech, with new Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer saying “there is no time to waste”.
The new government has said it wants to “enable growth that will improve the prosperity of our country and the living standards of working people”. Wednesday’s King’s Speech, which is where a government sets out its legislative agenda, will include bills to supplement the announcements on the National Wealth Fund, Great British Energy and a new border security command.
“We are hitting the ground running by bringing forward the laws we will need to rebuild our country for the long-term – and our ambitious, fully costed agenda is the downpayment on that change. “From energy, to planning, to unbreakable fiscal rules, my government is serious about delivering the stability that is going to turbo charge growth that will create wealth in every corner of the UK.
