英国首相安迪·伯纳姆将在下议院发表声明,强调更多公共服务回归公共管理是促进英国经济增长的唯一途径1。伯纳姆上台仅六周,此次将是他16年来首次从前排议席在下议院发言1。他将重申将公共控制置于未来数月工作的核心位置,并推动将英国水务等困难企业纳入政府所有制的立法1。
公共交通的接管已经启动。利物浦城市区将从下周末开始接管公交服务1,西米德兰兹联合管理局也与第10号街北方合作推进公交控制1。伯纳姆承诺10年计划让公众控制公用事业1。
伯纳姆面临来自多个方面的压力。保守党新任领袖基米·巴德诺赫已于周一解雇影子财政大臣梅尔·斯特赖德和影子外交大臣普里蒂·帕特尔1。反对党议员预计将质询政府如何筹资填补前任首相基尔·斯塔默遗留的47亿英镑国防投资缺口1。此外,近100名工党议员呼吁伯纳姆支持成立选举改革委员会,需在100天内完成1。最新民调显示工党领先改革党4个百分点、保守党落后1个百分点1,伯纳姆的净赞成率在最近两周增加3个百分点1。
Andy Burnham will deliver a statement to the House of Commons emphasizing that expanded public ownership of utilities represents the essential pathway for growing the UK economy.1 The Prime Minister, who took office six weeks ago, will use the Commons address to reaffirm his commitment to placing public control at the center of the government's agenda in the coming months and to advance legislation bringing utilities such as water companies under state ownership.1
The statement marks Burnham's first address from the front bench in the Commons in 16 years.1 The government has already begun implementing public transit takeovers, with Liverpool City Region set to assume control of bus services beginning next weekend, while the West Midlands Combined Authority is collaborating with Number 10 on transport management initiatives.1 Burnham has committed to a 10-year plan to place public utilities under public control.1
Burnham faces mounting pressure on several fronts as he prepares his statement. Opposition lawmakers are expected to challenge the government on how it will finance a 4.7 billion pounds defense investment gap left by predecessor Keir Starmer, while nearly 100 Labour MPs have called on Burnham to support establishing an electoral reform commission to be completed within 100 days.1 Meanwhile, Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch dismissed shadow Treasury secretary Mel Stride and shadow Foreign Secretary Priti Patel on Monday.1 Recent polling shows Labour leading the Reform Party by four percentage points, with the Conservatives trailing by one point, while Burnham's net approval rating has risen three percentage points over the past two weeks.1
