King Charles lays out U.K. government's legislative agenda in Parliament
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer aimed to reassert his authority over his Labour Party on Wednesday as his government unveiled 37 bills for the next parliamentary session, including legislation to bolster economic growth and national security.
The King's Speech - delivered by the monarch but written by government ministers - comes after almost a quarter of Starmer's lawmakers called on him to resign following poor local election results last week.
