A great opportunity

He is generally solid, poor at Watford, overall no better than Iversen. Needs to work on catching more shots and avoiding parrying them into dangerous areas.

Quite bizarre to watch the concerns about Euston. It has been awful for over 40 years. It is now better than it used to be because passenger numbers are down

Truly staggering henrimurison.bsky.social Anyone would propose a solution like this without talking to Stoke-on-Trent City Council or Staffs County Council. If devolution just means decision-making is geographically close but without consultation there is no point.

Would love to see Staffordshire Regeneration the cost benefit analyses that rank via Crewe compared to via Stafford/ Stoke-on-Trent/Macclesfield and conclude it is the best option. presume henrimurison.bsky.social and team can share. Standard HMT appraisal practice after all.

In DIST's innovation map. Stoke-on-Trent, ( the most productive digital economy anywhere north of where the connector would start) is identified as part of Manchester innovation cluster. Maybe transport should follow the economics? Staffordshire Regeneration henrimurison.bsky.social

Very sensible and considered piece. Points out illogicality of tightening too much in an uncertain market

None whatsoever. Bottom half of the division for 7 seasons tells a tale

Important lesson for the new independent regulator. Football is about winning as well as community and sustainability. Competitiveness matters

Very flaky article by ⁦Claer Barrett⁩ Reading it you would have no idea the U.K. is a relative low tax economy compared to the large European countries. Huge omission. Wish you weren’t here? Why people of all ages want to leave the UK via Financial Times on.ft.com/443R2Jf

Great piece Dave

Slightly amazed we needed a study to discover this! Talent is everywhere across the U.K., after years of neglect of many places, opportunity is not. The great brain drain: most high achievers leave their home town thetimes.com/article/1d6259…

Solution to UK’s economic woes? Hard to imagine a more wrong answer ⁦⁦Matthew Bishop⁩ Coming as Hull & Sheff Weds are the latest clubs in distress, is a poorly self- regulated, extractive oligopoly the answer? We have a PL economy that’s the problem. observer.co.uk/news/business/…

England a different side with players who can run

Cricket or rugby tough call

Quality

Why then @mrrbourne do so many businesses offer similar schemes to students in HE & secondary? Because evidence & experience is clear, class & geographic inequalities mean talent is being missed because it lacks a route to market. thetimes.com/article/65f6af…

All new civil service scheme does is create a path to main scheme for people unable to access currently. Still have to prove themselves. You @mrrbourne surely can’t be defending current intern regime, it is riddled with bias
