AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Payments outage: Worldpay suffered a power disruption during England vs Ghana, leaving card and contactless payments unreliable at pubs and major retailers including Tesco, with queues at cash machines as businesses and fans reported “payment declined” errors. Labour leadership churn: Keir Starmer resigned after a revolt, triggering a leadership contest; Labour MPs are weighing whether to challenge Andy Burnham, with nominations set to open July 9 and an “orderly transition” under discussion. Brexit 10-year reckoning: A former top UK diplomat said there’s no “halfway house” with the EU that would materially improve Britain’s fortunes, while new polling and analysis keep pointing to a weaker economy and lingering division a decade on. Net zero pressure: The Climate Change Committee warned that weakening net zero would hit inward investment and jobs, arguing faster electrification can cut bills and strengthen energy security. Business & investment: EY says Northern Ireland secured 28 new inward-investment projects in 2025 (+65%), led by software/IT and business services. Broadband access: TalkTalk paused sales of FTTC-based broadband to new customers in FTTC-only areas, telling affected movers they can’t order and may need to switch. Tech/markets: Global stocks slid after a tech sell-off, with the Nasdaq down more than 2% and UK shares also falling. Aviation safety: Airbus will inspect 16 A380s after cracks were found in wing components, including aircraft used by British Airways’ operator partners.
