Richard Tice: Labour party turmoil triggers higher risk premium for UK government bonds — Labour chaos fuels UK bond risk

Richard Tice, industry influencer, warns that instability within the Labour party is unsettling bond markets and causing an increase in the perceived risk premium attached to UK government debt.

Tice attributes this market reaction to what he describes as failed Conservative and Labour policies, specifically highlighting mass immigration and net zero commitments. He claims these approaches have contributed to a lack of economic growth and job losses. According to Tice, the Reform Party has cautioned about these risks for many months.

But we saved everything 🙂.

Tice has previously raised concerns over sector trends and policy decisions. He questioned the NEST pension fund’s move to invest in costly foreign private credit, citing high fees and long lock-ins. In an earlier note, he urged domestic licensing amid a 50 percent rise in UK gas prices contrasted with falling U.S. prices.
