My hot #Budget2024 take: Investing, not cutting, is the key to boosting public sector productivity.

Chancellor is using technology to justify budget cuts. Technology can be a valuable tool, but it's no substitute for skilled and experienced workers.

The Chancellor hinted at the fact that we tax working much more than we tax investing. But a glaring gap remains - see chart by my colleague Pranesh Narayanan.

I don’t really go for hot girl walks but I do go for gremlin walks where I leave the house looking like a train wreck and begrudgingly admit that the fresh air is helping me rediscover my will to live

Fascinating John Burn-Murdoch.

Young men reacting to a realignment / resetting of a world order that until now has worked in their favour?

BrewDog's owner James Watt is worth £262,000,000 - but won't pay his staff properly.

What could be more punk than that?

'How would you feel if something suddenly happened here and we had to flee somewhere?'

'We should be embarrassed. It's an atrocity.'

This woman takes less than a minute to completely destroy the Tory government's archaic anti-refugee policies.
