A chart of London's absolute productivity would still show it far outstripping every other region, so it is not necessarily a bad thing - for the UK or London - to have other regions closing the gap. The issue is more our low productivity and the speed we transition to a greener economy overall

We all know the 2022 energy price shock fueled the cost of living crisis. It also caused a profit bonanza for the very rich. We show the US reaped the largest profits ($377bn) of any country. 50% went to the richest 1%, only 1% to the bottom 50%. A🧵 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Market response to mini-budget was not "you can't spend" but "you have to spend well". Borrowing for tax cuts is not a path to growth, but borrowing to kickstart investment in net zero and nature positive infrastructure - warm homes, natural flood management, less polluted roads - lowers costs

Biofuel is a small but growing part of global soybean use. Here in the US, a number of recent policy moves (higher blending mandates, tax credits, curbs on foreign biofuel imports and feedstocks) are likely to result in MORE THAN HALF of all US soybean oil being burned as biofuel next year.
Biofuel demand to soak up more than half of US soyoil production next year, USDA says
U.S. biofuel makers will consume more than half of all soybean oil produced in the United States next year as a recent flurry of federal policy moves has transformed the sector, including higher blending mandates and curbs on foreign biofuel imports and feedstocks, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said on Friday.
