WA Communications General Election Briefing 👇 including my six guiding principles for political engagement over the coming days and weeks (plus a handy First 100 Days timeline): 1. An obvious point, but often overlooked, is how does your businesses agenda fit into what the Government will need to achieve politically after convincing millions of people to vote for them - Growth is Labour’s number one mission and is central to the success of Keir Starmer’s political project. 2. Whilst you may have been able to easily access Shadow Minsters and advisers when Labour was in Opposition, the apparatus of Government makes this more difficult. Set internal expectations accordingly! 3. With over 300 new MPs, businesses need to take time to get to know these new faces and their backgrounds. They will populate the Parliamentary select committees and groups which hold Government to account, and many of them will also be future ministers and leaders!   4. Many of the unprecedented results in this election were driven by local issues. The old cliche that ‘all politics is local’ holds more relevance now than ever, so understanding the constituency dynamic is key to getting cut through with new MPs.   5. Whisper it quietly, but if you did not take a detailed read of the Liberal Democrat manifesto now is probably a good time to do so. With seventy-one seats they are back as credible force in Parliament.   6. With the excitement of a change in Government and changing structures in Whitehall, remember the wider ecosystem. In the post-Brexit landscape, UK regulators hold significant powers that impact the operation of business and under a Labour Government consumer groups and unions will be influential in policy formulation. #GeneralElection #LabourGovernment #Business

The stakes were high, and the debate's impact could make the rest of the campaign a mere formality. "The debate's impact was so significant that it could very well have sealed the fate of this year's election." "Many analysts believe that the performance gaps between the candidates were too large to overlook." 🔗 Read the full article here https://lnkd.in/e9X4tDkt #USelection #Election2024 #DebateImpact #PresidentialDebate

The last several topsy-turvy weeks in politics have been whiplash inducing, and perhaps the most over-used phrases now in American political analysis are “uncharted waters” and “unprecedented events”.
