“It’s been an action-packed first quarter with plenty going on. A recurring theme has been the mixed signals some clients feel they’ve been getting from the Government as it battles to take a stronger grip on the domestic policy agenda.

“There remain big unanswered questions about large parts of the upcoming legislative programme and of course the central question of whether the Chancellor will change her fiscal rules.

“The rise of Reform, as seen in the recent local and regional elections, is only going to put this in sharper focus.”
 
Mixed signals from government, rising pressure from Reform, and an uncertain fiscal outlook are making it harder for organisations to plan ahead.
 
At Blakeney, we are helping clients navigate complexity and engage with confidence.
