With more than half the world's population going to the polls in 2024, we have been monitoring campaign pledges from politicians that relate to the telecoms sector and wider digital economy. First up we assess the EU and the UK.
In the briefing:
Tech and telecoms in the UK general election
The UK's 2024 general election campaign has seen pledges made on issues such as gigabit broadband, 5G, online safety, AI, scams and more. We compare the manifesto commitments from the Conservatives, Labour, the Liberal Democrats, Plaid Cymru and the SNP.
EU elections debrief
Elections for the 2024-2029 mandate saw the right-wing gain ground in both the European Parliament and at the national level. We consider what comes next, including the implications for policy, key personnel moves, and crucially the EU's digital agenda.
