Sector Policy & Regulation

Global Trade Shifts and UK Government Response

Following a tumultuous few months of global politics, we wanted to set out what has changed for businesses operating in the UK, and in particular how the politics playing out on the global stage are changing thinking, policy and priorities in the UK Government.

Whilst this is a good moment to take stock. we are not operating in a settled environment and everything could change.

We hope that this provides Associations with useful cross sector analysis that can be shared with members. It is organised in the following way:

  • What has changed?

  • Global Trade, Domestic Resilience, and the UK Response

  • The End of Globalisation?

  • UK Government Measures to Support Business and Households

  • The British Steel Saga

This report has been prepared for TAF by Inflect, a strategic communications and public affairs consultancy that delivers positive change.
