The New UK Government Wants Clean Energy, Sustainable Aviation Fuel, and Public Transport Reform

Britain's King Charles III presided over the State Opening of Parliament on Wednesday, delivering a speech that laid out the legislative priorities of the UK's new government for the coming year.

Though the King delivers it, the speech is written by the elected government, currently led by Labour Party leader and Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.

Starmer's priorities include easing the country's cost-of-living crisis and spurring economic growth by seeking "a new partnership with both business and working people" and "prioritizing wealth creation for all communities."

The new government also vowed to tackle the UK's housing shortages and "get Britain building" by accelerating "the delivery of high quality infrastructure and housing."

The King's speech contained 39 laws that the government plans to pass in the next parliamentary session, including a draft bill to nationalize nearly all rail services and another to establish a state-backed firm to invest in energy projects.

The package also includes numerous provisions including giving renters greater protections, bestowing police with new powers to tackle antisocial behavior, and reintroducing the previous government's bill to gradually ban smoking.
