Speech to set out 40 bills, from planning and infrastructure to employment rights
Keir Starmer has set out a government agenda that he will claim can counter the “snake oil charm of populism”, in a king’s speech pledging change to people’s lives including rights at work, cheaper energy and secure housing.
Starmer said the “fight for trust is the battle that defines our political era”, and said the king’s speech – the first under a Labour government for 15 years – would end the performative and divisive politics of the last years and counter the rise of the populist hard right.
