Love that Keely Hodgkinson broke the indoor 800m world record which had been set on the day she was born. Almost too good to be true.

National borrowing is falling faster than expected.
Inflation is down.
Interest rates are falling.
Real wages are improving.
And the U.K. is the fastest growing of the wealthiest countries in Europe.

Today’s public finance figures show borrowing is falling, and falling even faster than forecast back in November.
This is important: the Chancellor’s plan for meeting her fiscal rules is predicated on borrowing falling significantly this year and next.

I do love that the trend in the UK, specifically, is young men rapidly swung left from 2010 onwards, it’s just that young women swung left even more rapidly
I've lost count of the number of times I've had to pull out this chart from the FT.
It's not really true to say young men are moving right in the developed world overall, let along within the UK.
Just like the mythical Reform surge with teenagers, it's a meme that just will not die.

BBC iPlayer randomly showed me the first ever episode of #SilentWitness the other day. Amanda Burton's Sam Ryan. Not only was it surprisingly racy for a 30-yr-old show, but it was off-the-bat x100 better than the unspeakable cobblers it has become now. Why DO they bother?
