On 21 March it will have been 100 days since the 2019 General Election. Our IfG experts discussed what the government has achieved so far and looked ahead to its plans for the coming months.

Is the government’s new 87-strong parliamentary working majority impacting its legislative agenda? How are future trade negotiations with the EU and other countries progressing? What does the budget tell us about the government’s priorities and its approach to the public finances?

We assessed how the government is performing against Boris Johnson’s pledges for his first 100 days and discuss how things are likely to progress. Read our Policy Tracker for our analysis
