PM’s interest rate cut tease & Taylor Swift’s London

The Standard

Polling day is nearly here - and the prime minister has set out sweeteners he hopes will woo Londoners to vote Conservative on 4 July, rather than backing Labour - or switching to Reform, the Liberal Democrats or Greens.

In a wide-ranging interview with the Evening Standard’s political editor, Nicholas Cecil, Sunak teased future interest rate cuts, vowed war on post-Brexit red tape, discussed the future of the City and civil service reform.

Plus, Taylor Swift played the finale of three shows at Wembley Stadium on her Eras tour, before returning to London in August.

Evening Standard commissioning editor and writer El Hunt, who was at Wembley, joins Mark Blunden in the newsroom to discuss the concerts.
