China this year has already run an annual trade surplus with the world exceeding $1 trillion for the first time. Their exports have been growing 3x faster than global trade. That kind of growth can’t happen without factories elsewhere closing down.

There is no way we can even comprehend the complex machinations going on behind closed doors. Christopher Harborne, a Brit who lives in Thailand, had donated £9mn to Reform. He was also a large donor of Brexit party. Harborne is the largest share holder of the British defence company Qinetiq.

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?
That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

BBC News is getting out of hand. The definition of news is reporting things happened in the near past or currently happening. “What this means by the business,” or “in the coming days people will be asking” have no place in a news report. They haven’t yet happened. Those are your views, not news!

Labour have managed to achieve a remarkable double whammy: they've increased the costs borne by businesses, presided over falling consumer confidence & rising inflation, hiked taxes, and raised borrowing. These are the kind of dubious achievements one might expect and fear from the populist left...

'One of the truly great gardens of the world' is at risk of having its vistas and tranquility blighted forever
The views from Rousham, the birthplace of the English landscape-garden movement, are at risk of development if plans for the nearby former RAF Upper Heyford Air Force base get the go-ahead.

Net immigration is now at around the lowest sensible level. If it falls further, it will seriously damage the UK economy.
NEW: Net migration falls sharply to 204,000 in the year to June.
That’s a fall from 649,000 in the year to June 2024. It is a drop of nearly 80% from its 2023 peak.
