Boris Johnson’s future as prime minister is on the rocks. Whatever happens, throughout his time as PM he has talked up R&D and innovation. We recently examined what he’s achieved on this, and what remains to be done: researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-uk-pol…

Tom Scholar is the best civil servant of his generation. Sacking him makes no sense. His experience would have been invaluable in the coming months as government policy places massive upward pressure on the cost of funding. As Gordon Brown used to say "they're not thinking".

Oh, we will have a lot of laughs over this in the office on Monday! What a wig David. Pleased to have been an undercover officer in this episode 😂
