Keir Starmer's Dynamic First Week as UK Prime Minister

Starmer's initial days in office mix energetic reforms and strategic blame on Conservative legacy.

  • Starmer's government quickly ended the Tory ban on new onshore wind farms and launched a National Wealth Fund to boost private investment.
  • A significant focus has been placed on highlighting the dire state of public services inherited from the Conservatives, including overcrowded prisons and a struggling NHS.
  • Starmer's international presence was bolstered by a well-timed NATO summit where he met with global leaders, including President Biden.
  • The new administration faces internal challenges, such as a brewing rebellion over child welfare payments and the early release of prisoners.
  • Starmer's early popularity is reflected in a rise in favorable public opinion, as shown by recent polls.
