Perplexed at this. The mid-market restaurant is in a bad way, and frankly what has changed to make Jamie’s Italian a better proposition than it was six years ago?

🔥 Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.

A new decade-long Brexit study quantifies it:

A 6–8% hit to GDP

That's £180bn-£240bn a year

It means less tax revenue and so less money for everything.

I would argue that the real current scandal for which the BBC should be held to account is its role in over-promoting a ragbag of right wing MPs who are front of the queue for its destruction

Panorama made mistakes but this ‘scandal’ is the work of populists trying to control the airwaves. They won’t rest

This has always been been argument against our fiscal framework. You need some kind of debt rule but this kind of last minute flailing around is toxic for policy development.
I know it’s always like this. But one striking thing from the budget kite flying and kite pulling back in, is how major policy decisions are constantly being buffeted around by iterative forecast changes.
All feels a bit of a silly way to be making major economic policy & political decisions.

Fun (or not so fun) fact - the author of the “BBC bias” memo is a lobbyist for the American Pharmaceutical Group.

U.S. pharma companies recently threatened to abandon the UK unless the NHS pays more for its medicines.

They also donated millions to Trump’s campaign and inauguration
