AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

UK-Japan Deal: Keir Starmer and Sanae Takaichi backed a new “era of cooperation” with a £18bn investment push, including £9bn-plus for UK infrastructure, offshore wind and tech, plus defence and frontier tech links. Russian Shadow Fleet: UK forces boarded and detained the sanctioned tanker Smyrtos in the English Channel in the first UK-led operation of its kind, with the ship held off the south coast while investigations continue. Iran Sanctions: The UK, France, Germany and Italy said they’re ready to lift Iran sanctions if Tehran takes nuclear steps after a US-Iran peace deal. Social Media Crackdown: Starmer is set to announce an Australia-style ban for under-16s on major platforms and extra limits for older teens, alongside curbs on certain AI chatbots. Business & Money: Late payments are costing the UK economy about £11bn a year as SMEs wait around 27 days to get paid; meanwhile, 24 bank branches (Lloyds, NatWest, Halifax and Bank of Scotland) are closing this week. Health & Science: A study suggests hypermobility sufferers wait up to 21 years for diagnosis; gene-edited barley becomes the first UK crop cleared under the new precision breeding route. Transport Disruption: Sinkholes near a bridge suspended trains to Gatwick, leaving thousands stranded.
