  • Summary

  • Sky News' deputy political editor Sam Coates and Politico's Anne McElvoy look at the day ahead in British politics.

    Today’s the day for Rachel Reeves, as she aims to get the economy growing with a big speech this morning. There’s the heavily trailed backing of a third runway at Heathrow, as well as the news this morning the government is breathing fresh life into another big project in the South of England: the Oxford-Cambridge growth corridor. How will it go down with her party around the country?

    And while the chancellor aims to put the boosters under the economy, the government is reeling from a damaging defeat to their own rocket man. Overnight, peers voted in favour of giving the creative industries greater protection from AI firms using their work to train models without pay. Labour's election mega supporter Elton John was one of many stars to back the amendments to the government’s bill. Are the government alright for fighting on this?
