Around 40 different reforms were promised when King Charles read out the new British Labour government's declaration of government policy.
We will open up for growth and get Britain moving, said the new Prime Minister Keir Starmer in his introductory speech before the king took over.
In the traditional speech, the British monarch reads out the laws that the government intends to propose over the next twelve months.
It is the first time since 2010 that the speech has been written by the social democratic Labour - which has taken over power from the conservative Tories after a landslide victory in the election on July 4.
Starmer's government promises, among other things, a new financial policy framework, measures to attract foreign investments, and the promotion of renewable energy. They also propose strengthened labour rights, new housing, and the nationalization of the country's mismanaged railway system.
The Prime Minister also promises strengthened border control and tough action against the smugglers behind the migrant flows across the English Channel.
Furthermore, Labour wants to abolish 92 seats in the parliament's upper house that have been reserved for people from the aristocracy who have inherited their titles.
Starmer describes his new government's program as an antidote to "populism".
Populism's promises of miraculous medicine may seem enticing, but they only lead us into a dead end where further division and even greater discontent await, said Starmer.
His predecessor Rishi Sunak held a polite tone when he acknowledged that Labour had ridden on "the people's desire for change" - but that it is now up to the new government to deliver.
