🇬🇧 Energy bills did not used to be cripplingly high. Houses did not used to be this expensive. Childcare used to be more financially manageable.
So when did life in Britain become so unaffordable?

@ThemanfromK Good morning - You are right, they are certainly not in Nato. The story says: "By contrast, Poland – which neighbours Ukraine and Russia’s ally Belarus – has climbed Nato’s rankings." telegraph.co.uk/business/2026/…

In your article today in the S Tel, you wrote "...by contrast, Poland, Ukraine, and Belarus have climbed NATOs rankings".
I don't understand. Ukraine and Belarus are not a part of Nato, therefore how can they have climbed NATO's rankings?

Why is the electorate so boiling with rage at the political class? This line from @szupingc and @Tim_Wallace's piece on the new economic forecasts feels like a key reason.
"By the end of this decade, workers’ real-terms hourly pay – adjusted for inflation – will still be 0.5% below its 2009-10 level. That’s more than two lost decades of growth."

💸 "Even a bond market-friendly Budget may not be enough to save the Chancellor"
Could Rachel Reeves' budget be her last? The Chancellor’s challenge is to satisfy both the bond market and Labour backbenchers

I’d prescribe a strong scotch after reading this. I’d not heard before the idea that we are not so much an emerging economy as a submerging one..

There is a rather wretched feeling about the UK economy. Good to chat with @szupingc and @Tim_Wallace. But you may need a strong coffee before reading the piece. We desperately need a plan...please. @CamEcon @MMF_research @econromesh @AntonMuscatelli telegraph.co.uk/business/2025/…

@b0bbybux I don't accept it! But it could be a way for a desperate Government to argue the toss. I hoped I'd made that clear by saying the manifesto has already slipped on NICs, the hunt is on for more loopholes, the freeze in rates is a stealth tax, etc

@Tim_Wallace kindly run past me how you can clearly accept the inference that the self-employed do not fall into the favourite @Keir_Starmer and @UKLabour cliche category of “working people”. telegraph.co.uk/business/2025/…

Cut CPRE off from the water mains.
Oxford Clarion@OxfordClarion
A bid to derail Thames Water’s planned Abingdon Reservoir has been rejected by the High Court. CPRE Oxfordshire and campaign group Safer Waters had argued that Secretary of State for the Environment, Steve Reed, acted unlawfully in not calling a public inquiry.

The govt actually have commissioned and funded six new prisons, but guess what?
Planning appeals and badgers have prevented us actually building them. We have legalised crime to avoid upsetting NIMBYs.

My years as an M&A reporter were clearly leading to this moment:
KKR’s £2.3bn takeover of green energy firm Encavis yesterday resulted in red faces in the City - a link that was meant to be for deal documents directed people to an adult website instead!
