Brilliant. On his release from jail in Iran, Cooper observed “I can say that anyone who, like me, was educated in an English public school and served in the ranks of the British Army is quite at home in a Third World prison.”​ https://t.co/9wND9sIB9d

The Chancellor has been given cover by the IMF to ease her fiscal rules again. But they are already utterly useless in their main purpose, which is to get excessive public debt falling https://t.co/JBptMCTEZi

Fiscal ruination of the western world. With political leaders unable to face up to unpalatable truths about welfare spending, bond markets are threatening a global financial crisis. My column https://t.co/jjGVMVjqkm

If the Government wants British savers to invest more in the UK economy, give them an economy worth investing it. My column on how moves to force more savings into UK investment is just rearranging the deckchairs on the Titanic https://t.co/LHUepDLf3a

Mmm...good. A split in the Reform vote will completely neuter this movement https://t.co/nzx19jQ2RV

Agree with much of this, but think that youth mobility is essential to avoid creating a middle class apartheid where those with some kind of spurious Irish or Continental ancestry are free to work wherever they like in Europe, but the rest are not. https://t.co/buZE2N5aj1

RT @Frencheconomics: A Spitfire in front of St Paul’s… and rumours of a UK-US trade deal, and a likely interest rate cut at lunchtime. What…

Good to see a trade deal with India finally concluded. But the economic boost is insignificant, and the National Insurance exemption on Indian workers is deeply suspect, potentially making it cheaper for Indian companies to employ Indian workers in UK https://t.co/8VdEOnYnfp

Amazon, which owns Audible, putting up its prices again, this time by nearly 13 pc. I wonder if the Bank of England is fully aware of this kind of price gouging on products not included in its inflation basket. https://t.co/7gIcWiOag5

The Tory performance is clearly dire, potentially catastrophic. But, remarkably, Labour’s even worse in its own way. Labour was defending seats it won in 2021, when it performed appallingly (Starmer almost resigned it was so bad). So defending from a very low base. And yet it

As Americans are about to find out, supply chains are already too globalised to be easily unscrambled. Some 40pc of Chinese imports are components used in US domestic manufacture. Cost of replacing them virtually prohibitive. My column https://t.co/rIScRMmejp

Lord Stern, architect of Britain's Net Zero targets, says in response to Blair's intervention that if Britain starts to wobble, then everyone else will wobble too. No. We make no difference at all. Virtually everyone else has already wobbled and they don't care what the UK does

Why Trump would like to sack Fed chair Powell, but can't. His attacks on Powell are straight out of the Richard Nixon playbook. My column https://t.co/yl3rQovuWP
