When my girlfriend arrived in London four years ago, she expected to find a riverside worthy of this great city. Instead she saw this. Taking a walk with her today, she said it should all be demolished and rebuilt in a “proper London style”. I couldn’t agree more.

Quite the UK GDP revision today - hugely higher level - almost 2% up - ONS found stockbuilding down the back of the sofa in 2020 - and foud wholesale and health services much stronger than expected in 2021 Means the UK is not a global outlier any more....

The Labour Force Survey is critical to so much of our understanding of the UK. But I hadn't clocked that response rates had got *this* bad Raises lots of questions about whether we really know what we think we know on a whole range of issues...

Both parties are asleep at the wheel on just how popular apprenticeships are to the electorate - in terms of the marginal £, they're more popular than schools and childcare! on.ft.com/42B08uK

Really great to know that British voters recognise (and agree with me!) on the importance of apprenticeships. ft.com/content/4e2025…

This is such a dreadfully sad time for Unlocked Graduates. I am really hoping that the government can work with us to find a solution so we don't lose this incredible initiative from prisons across England and Wales. unlockedgrads.org.uk/news-item/upda…

A story, on the back of this tweet. It’s about why Natasha is a star, I’m an idiot, and why government procurement and lawyers are even more so

Extraordinary that the government should risk losing Unlocked and its wonderful recruits at a time when prisons are in meltdown. Huge potential own goal. Natasha has done amazing things Natasha Porter OBE x.com/NPorter_/statu…
