I love this detail sent to me by our Joe Mayes. Fresh off the plane from a trip to Canada following the chancellor and Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey, Joe messages from the hoi polloi passport queue as the chancellor sails past through fast-track.

Hemmed in by his red lines, Keir Starmer has somehow managed to negotiate a new deal with the European Union. Once more, there were late night talks, with the EU playing hardball until the last. Admittedly, Starmer has made some concessions – most notably on fish – but seems to be betting that the overall economic benefits of the deal will outweigh anger in fishing communities.

We asked earlier this month if Keir Starmer was going to get the trifecta of trade agreements – deals with India and the US, and a reset with the EU — three fruits lining up like a slot machine. Next week we find out. Ahead of that our team has the inside track on how that negotiation has gone.

But sometimes my job is also to show you what’s bubbling away beneath the surface and I think our coverage of Britain’s water — or lack of it — fits that bill.
