Douglas Barrowman and Michelle Mone's company, PPE Medpro, has just been ordered to refund the Government £122m from a PPE contract.

Just a reminder that despite voters having the ability to vote out Khan in the Mayor elections, Tory London councils spent hundreds of thousands of council tax payers money in fighting something that would benefit all Londoners.

Lyse Doucet interviewed by me about Gaza & Palestinian recognition for tonight’s ’Unspun World’ on BBC Two & iPlayer. Plus Syria’s new leader at the UN, the Taliban’s war on Afghan women, & the US-Venezuela dispute. If you’re interested in the world around us, this is for you.

UK 30 year gilt yield, down from the breathlessly reported 5.75%, is now 5.51%.

Not that you will hear this from all the journalist accounts who were gunning for Reeves all week.
