See our analysis of the King's Speech below and the economic impact on the West Midlands. There are no new announcements in this speech, but stay tuned for our Autumn Statement analysis (22nd of November), might be a little more exciting (but hopefully not mini budget exciting)

Excited to see the Megatrends in the Midlands report now published and out in the world. The report asks what are the global megatrends, how will they affect our region, and how can we prepare.

Anne Green notes the majority of those economically inactive don't wish to work, and whilst most of these individuals are sick and therefore unable to work, for others which are economically inactive it is largely due to flexibility issues and secure employment issues #BER23

Mike Owens heights we need to realign economics, economics is the allocation of scare resources, we need to realign our economy to help those most deprived, to provide opportunity, boost health, improve productivity, improve transport to reduce wasted scarce resources #BER23

The narrative of this year's BER is not quite as clear as it has been in a past, in other years there were opportunities to look forward to such as the Commonwealth games and HS2, now these opportunities aren't quite as clear #BER23

NIESR has found the UK has "lost 5 years of economic growth" as the triple blow of Brexit, COVID and invasion of Ukraine badly affected the economy. Almost like years of public funding cuts, low growth and investment might have left the economy more vulnerable to economic shocks

Bank of England increased interest rates to 5.25% to cool economy. But, demand has been falling. Supply side issues are driving up prices, energy, labour shortages, supply chains (Brexit), low investment and productivity etc. Interest rate rises won't necessarily fix this

A quick scan of some of the results show very low turnout rates in many areas. Labour may be doing well but I’m not sure we can say the same for democracy, & certainly not helped by the introduction of voter ID
