Starmer's Welfare Concessions

⌨
UK media heavily concentrated on the Labour government's contentious welfare reform bill throughout July 1st. Morning reports indicated Prime Minister Keir Starmer faced a significant backbench rebellion, with a crucial vote looming. By early afternoon, rebel MPs had secured a vote to challenge the proposed cuts. As the day progressed into the late afternoon and evening, Starmer offered last-minute concessions, ultimately leading to the passage of a watered-down bill in the Commons. This marked a costly victory for the government, reflecting internal party divisions. Concurrently, Britain experienced its hottest day of the year, with warnings of melting roads and escalating public brawls. Three senior staff members were arrested in connection with the Lucy Letby hospital case.

⌨
The UK media on July 2nd centered heavily on the Labour government's deepening political turmoil following the welfare reform bill's passage. Morning reports detailed Prime Minister Starmer's controversial concessions to rebels, portraying the bill's approval as a costly and fracturing victory.
