The King’s Speech: All you need to know

The new Labour government has launched its agenda with all the pomp and ceremony of the King’s Speech. They’ve gone big on promises of economic growth, house building and health reforms - with some notable exceptions but few surprises.

Will it be enough to satisfy a deeply unsatisfied electorate? And can Keir Starmer deliver the bold change he was elected on? 

In a special episode of the Daily T from Westminster, Kamal and Camilla are joined by The Telegraph’s Political Correspondent Dominic Penna to go over all the key themes and details of the King’s Speech - plus what's missing.

Also on College Green are Labour MP Barry Gardiner - who offers his advice to the Tories on life in opposition - and the Conservatives’ George Freeman, who explains why his party should "go into a dark room" for the next six months.
