So much of human progress is temperature control. Air conditioning saves lives, reduces stress, boosts productivity, saves the NHS money, incentivises solar infrastructure and is negatively correlated with existing energy demand. A no-brainer for policymakers.

Flying over Bryce, Zion and the Grand Canyon on my flight to LA now and stuck in a middle seat. Nobody in the window seats is looking outside. I can’t handle it. We need to respect window seats. You must be in awe of our amazing planet to be seated at that miraculous perch

Coventry is doing something that many thought impossible: building a tram line in Britain quickly and cheaply. Read @djjmilner of Create Steets on how they've done it and what we can learn from it. capx.co/coventrys-tram…

So tomorrow, HM Government is going to ask Parliament to pass a law in a day. Which is entirely constitutionally proper, correct, and valid. But next time a minister says they "can't" do something, remind them of tomorrow 😉

Still can't get over Burnham warning that third runway is a model for 'an ever overheating UK economy'. I'd be absolutely delighted if the economy came even remotely close to overheating, let alone on a permanent basis. Just some flickers of warmth would be nice.

You don’t need an economics degree to see that if an asset is worth multiple millions “on paper” but yields only minimum wage returns, something is hugely amiss

Hardly the greatest villain of the night, but Rory Stewart is proof of how far you can get by being confident and having a posh British accent.

We want growth for higher wages, lower absolute poverty, half decent public services, the ability to tackle climate change while protecting household living standards… we won’t solve the huge crises we face by flirting with a degrowth agenda that makes almost everything harder

I feel for HMT officIals. The rules precluded them sharing spending pressures with Ms Reeves ahead of the Election; the current framework precluded them discussing the realism of spending plans with the OBR. The changes to the OBR charter announced today are a big step forward.

The debate on Labour's vote share is meant to tell ministers they have no right to reshape the UK. But Labour didn't win alone. It won in a tacit and devastating anti-Tory alliance with the Lib Dems. Our new govt has a huge mandate to reverse the disaster of Conservative rule

If today was the first time Labour was announcing GB Energy, rail nationalisation and a new industrial strategy, the manifesto might be regarded as bold so the fact that these are pre-announced and familiar doesn’t diminish their ambition.

Oh my. This letter to The Times by a former *Tory MP* on the Angela Rayner story is quite something. "I suppose that her attackers cannot bear the idea that they are about to lose to a woman who pulled herself up by her bootstraps. And who is going wipe the floor with them." ~AA

The crazy thing about the shambolic UK economy is they're at or near the leading edge on stuff like AI and pharmaceutical innovation. It's an advanced society immiserating itself with bad land use policy and inadequate infrastructure.
