Good news about the British economy?!

UK productivity – how much the economy produces per hour worked – grew more in the past year than in the previous seven years combined.

In our latest Substack, Research Director @gthwaites.bsky.social takes a closer look 📈

A decent man with an ambitious agenda for our country, already delivering significant change in line with manifesto commitments, makes admittedly a poor call

He apologises

Enough to bring down a PM?

If so, we are no longer a serious country & we deserve everything we get if he goes

Former Washington Post journalists have launched a GoFundMe to help repatriate fired staff members who are effectively stranded in foreign countries.

One of the richest men in the world fired them from the paper and didn’t even pay to ensure they got home.

The fact that this continues to happen is absolutely disgusting. Imagine any other kind of “surgery” not requiring medical qualifications. Barbaric.

Just in case you were wondering how the Government is really getting on with its agenda/manifesto commitments after just 18 months

Our biased media will not, of course, offer this analysis:

I watched Richard Burgon MP last night

My God - who needs a Tory Opposition when you have such overt treachery on our own backbenches?

Psychologically incapable of coping with Starmer’s 2024 GE victory

Today has not been the best day for this Government or for Starmer, of whom I am generally a fan

As ever, it’s all being jumped on by wreckers on the left with glee

They won't be happy until we have a Tory/Reform Government again & that is sickening

Today, our journey leads us to a galaxy 215 million light-years away.

A few years ago, astronomers observed a rare blast of light there. It was the telltale sign that one of the galaxy’s stars had been torn apart by a supermassive black hole.
