    With Brexit on the ballot the next election will be box office (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Whatever else Andy Burnham’s conference speech achieves, it has certainly opened up some major dividing lines in British politics – and some old wounds. The next election, when it comes, could well have Brexit on the ballot after the PM said he’s open to looking at everything from joining the customs union or entering the single market through to full fat EU membership. This will be music to the ears of many, I know, but I prefer the Burnham of three months ago, when he said “I’m not proposing t

    Burnham sets out his socialist stall and business barely gets a mention (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    We were told to expect a speech that would leave no room for doubt about what Andy Burnham believes in, and we got one. There might not be much detail yet about how the Burnham Revolution will unfold but there is no ambiguity, either. The Prime Minister painted a vision of what this country could be like ten years from now, and it’s one dramatically to the left of where we are today politically, economically and culturally. This was socialism in plain sight. Burnham’s mantra is “public control”

    Andy Burnham can't treat Heathrow expansion as a local planning issue (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Has Andy Burnham’s commitment to devolution morphed into a convenient excuse not to lead? I ask, because he seems to have excused himself from the debate about a critical £50bn national infrastructure project: Heathrow’s third runway. The project has been debated since the 1980s but officially kicked off in 2003 when Labour’s Alistair Darling, then Transport Secretary, backed the scheme. He said at the time “doing nothing is not an option.” He thought it could be constructed by 2015 but after de

    Treasury's new Head of Growth will have their work cut out (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Do you want the good news or the bad news? Trick question, I’m afraid. There is no good news. The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has revised its forecast for UK economic growth this year from 0.9 per cent to 1.1 per cent, but – before you reach for the champagne – they’ve also downgraded their forecast for 2027 from 1.1 per cent to just one per cent. The experts at the OECD have a moderately more optimistic view on inflation, suggesting a peak this year of 3.1 per

    Frozen tax thresholds hold back Brits for ten miserable years (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    In March 2021 Chancellor Rishi Sunak described it as “a tax policy that is progressive and fair.” In November 2022, Chancellor Jeremy Hunt extended the policy, describing it as necessary and fair. In October 2024, Chancellor Rachel Reeves announced an end to the policy, saying extending it beyond 2028 “would hurt working people.” Alas, a year later in November 2025 she said that the policy will in fact endure until at least 2031. She acknowledged that doing so will “affect working people” but st
