2024 General election manifestos and key points for publishers

We’ve been through the manifesto’s of the main political parties and picked out the areas with implications for our sector following the formation of a new government.

These set out the policies that the parties would implement if elected to Government on 4th July 2024. Whilst not legally binding, they are seen as the policies for which the party of Government have the strongest democratic mandate.

The areas covered give the UK electorate commitments on key priority issues and of significance to the publishing sector the manifestos feature commitments on artificial intelligence, press regulation, and the role of the Royal Mail.

Links to each party’s manifesto in full can be found at the end of the document. You can read our analysis here.
