My name is Eric Musgrave, and my journey took a life-changing turn when I joined Cohort 13 (C13) of UCLA’s Vice Provost’s Initiative for Pre-College Scholars (VIPS).

The recent local government elections gave a telling view of how the great British electorate is viewing the Labour government’s unedifying performance since its landslide victory last July. Losing the parliamentary seat of Runcorn and Helsby to Reform by just six votes was the bitter cherry on a stodgy cake – the Labour majority in 2024 in the constituency had been almost 15,000.

There was much trumpeting and banging of gongs in the business media recently as high street favourite Next turned in annual profits of more than £1 billion for the first time. Its sales hit £6.3bn. Well done them. That equates to around £2.74 million profit each day, or £114,150 each hour of every day. No wonder Next head honcho Simon Wolfson, who has been in charge since August 2001, is held up as one of the finest retailers of his generation.

We can expect “a tsunami of job cuts” across UK clothing and textile factories later this year thanks to the imposition of higher operating costs in Labour’s Budget last autumn against the backdrop of continuing challenging trading conditions in almost all the world’s leading markets. This was the gloomy prediction I received from a Scottish factory owner during the Pitti Uomo menswear fair in January.

Howard Kendall was so much associated with Everton it was a surprise for me to discover he played for another team - and in the FA Cup Final too. From "The Top Teams of 1964", a booklet given away with Rover & Wizard. https://t.co/bexLq1jD8v
17 October 2015. Everton legend, Howard Kendall, died (aged 69). He played 229 league games for Everton from 1967 to 1974, and was Everton’s most successful manager, winning 2 Top division League titles, an FA Cup, 3 Charity Shields and the 1985 European Cup Winners’ Cup. https://t.co/O5GM3jNa2y
Well said @mikegalsworthy As a journo with 40+ years' experience, I wonder what's going on at our "national broadcaster". If I can't trust it with things I know a bit about, how can I trust it with anything else? See my recent column re BBC & Harrods: https://t.co/2bzPN6KYVW
