AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

AI and Jobs: Microsoft is offering voluntary exits to eligible staff in the UK and three other countries, with about 60,000 employees globally potentially covered. The move comes as it ramps up AI spending, following a pledge to invest £22bn in UK AI infrastructure. Budget and Business: The government faces pressure to support growth as borrowing costs rise and the Budget approaches. UK business output has picked up, but firms still report price pressures. Logistics Investment: A Logistics UK report says the sector supports £356bn of economic activity and 5.3 million jobs; a 1% increase in its share of the economy could attract £30bn in foreign investment. Skills Gap: Industry leaders say a shortage of skilled welders risks holding back UK manufacturing, defence and infrastructure plans.
