King’s Speech 2024 LIVE: King’s Speech will ‘take brakes off Britain’ with borders & renters change expected
SIR Keir Starmer has today unveiled a blizzard of new laws in Labour’s first King’s Speech for 15 years.
King Charles swept into Parliament this morning to formally lay out the screeching gear change on more than a decade of Tory rule.
A hefty 39 bills were unveiled with a “pro-business and pro-worker” push the PM vows will “take the brakes off Britain”.
It included a crackdown on small boat smuggling gangs, street crime and greedy landlords.
Changes will also be made to the planning system so major infrastructure projects of national importance can be built.
The most left-wing package for years will also unleash reams of employment red tape and axe curbs on union strike powers.
But despite breaking with the Conservative record, previously pledged policies like the smoking ban and football shake-up will be pinched.
