First, the structure I need to follow:

  1. Executive Summary: 1-2 paragraphs summarizing the most critical developments. Keep it concise.

  2. Key Trends & Sentiment:

    • List 2 key emerging trends
    • Note 1-2 significant sentiment shifts
    • Highlight 1 key future implication
  3. Key Developments: For each of the 5 categories, provide a single paragraph summary (50-75 words each). Each should:

    • Focus on the single most significant development
    • Rate its significance (High/Medium/Low)
    • Keep to 50-75 words

    Categories:

    • Tech & AI Developments
    • UK Political News
    • Global Affairs
    • Economic & Financial Updates
    • Climate & Environment
  4. Key Takeaways:

    • List 3 most important implications
    • Note 1-2 developments to watch

The total brief should be 500-600 words.

Now, I need to analyze the articles and extract the most relevant information.
