Well. What a year. In 2024, Westminster was turned upside down. The election brought about hundreds of new Members of Parliament and ended the careers of hundreds more. Labour cruised to a landslide victory built upon its pillars that are propping up its missions and laying the foundations for delivery on its milestones. As the curtain falls, it’s time for TWFW’s annual awards.

Yesterday, the Government unveiled its revised National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), the latest move that Sir Keir Starmer hopes will see him solve the puzzle that is economic growth and fulfil his pledge of delivering 1.5 million new homes by the end of this parliament. Field Consulting’s Head of Built Environment Clarke Heron reviews whether the changes will make a difference.

Five months in and Sir Keir Starmer’s Government is already in reboot mode. After scandals, staff losses, and a dive in popularity from +20 to -30, Starmer is trying to steady his red flagged ship with a set of six ambitious “milestones.”

A typical Friday in Westminster would see an empty commons chamber, with most MPs back in their constituencies dealing with local matters. But today is no ordinary Friday.

The streets of Westminster were filled with Barbour jackets and flat caps on Tuesday, as farmers braved the British weather to protest Labour’s controversial “family farm tax.”

As Keir Starmer returns from Azerbaijan, we begin to wonder if anyone is still listening to COP summits and will have even noticed the Government’s ‘new’ climate goals.

While Labour’s heart may lie with the Democrats, the party’s head aligned quickly with the political and diplomatic imperative of relations with President-elect Donald Trump.

As Budget week closes, Chancellor Rachel Reeves still has one eye on the markets as she looks toward the weekend and yet another round of TV interviews.

On Wednesday, Chancellor Rachel Reeves will deliver Labour’s first Budget in over a decade. It’s a critical moment for Keir Starmer’s fledgling administration after a bumpy first 100 days.

It is difficult to pinpoint when we started talking about the ‘first 100 days’ of a new Government in British politics...

Tomorrow will mark Labour’s 100th day in office. A moment, you would think, for celebration and to look forward to what the Government can deliver. But if you’re inside Downing Street, is there really much to celebrate?

After four days of receptions, fringes, fireside chats, media interviews and gaffes, could the set piece speeches actually change anything in the Tory leadership race? Based on the reception in the hall the answer is possibly – even probably – yes.
