AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Cost-of-living crackdown: Prime Minister Andy Burnham says Labour will clamp down on “subscription traps” and misleading discounts, bringing in new rules from January. Businesses will have to give clearer upfront info, send regular reminders and make it easier to cancel, with a 14-day cooling-off period after trials or renewals. Ministers estimate savings of about £14 a month for people who can exit unwanted deals. Energy support: A proposal from the Resolution Foundation would cut bills by up to £175 for low-income households (earners up to £24,000), costing £2bn. North Sea pressure: Burnham faces a fresh political fight as consultations near an end over new oil and gas drilling at Jackdaw and Rosebank, with environmental groups urging refusal. Industrial hit: Leeds construction firm Torsion Construction Limited has entered liquidation, with 100+ jobs lost and hundreds of millions of pounds of work affected. Cyber risk: MakeUK reports 30% of manufacturers suffered a cyber-incident in the past year, and only half have a response plan. UK-Nigeria ties: The UK appoints Vicky Seymour as Deputy High Commissioner in Abuja, aiming to strengthen cooperation on trade, security and migration. Hydrogen push abroad: Abu Dhabi’s hydrogen drive is accelerating, with targets aimed at exporting low-carbon hydrogen to early demand centres like the EU and Japan.
