HMG is lining itself up for a punishing month with its allies. The UK has been at the heart of designing NATO's defence plans. Those plans specify what allies agreed was necessary to ensure deterrence. Allies made commitments as to what part of the plan they would resource. 1/9

This morning, UK forces boarded a Russian tanker in the English Channel that was secretly helping to bankroll Putin's war in Ukraine.

If we want to fix English local government, then we need to sort out both the finances and the geography of councils.

Our new briefing shows how to get it done by the end of the Parliament, and it all depends on a new map for English local government that looks like this:

Other the last few years D-Day seems to be increasingly understood as a mostly American enterprise in no small party thanks to Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers, etc...
