Going to ask again. Where is the condemnation from Nigel Farage and Reform of last night's violence.

[John Petrie #European @Petrie_JohnC]

There are those that want us to believe that the BBC is an untrustworthy news channel and that GB News is the trusted channel.

They are very different. One gets things wrong from time to time, the other deliberately promotes a narrative with little consideration of fact.

What we are watching is Trump’s tariff-induced crash turning into a Truss-style fiscal crisis. The collapse in US government long bonds, Treasuries, is startling, scary. It is precisely the opposite of what Trump and his advisers expected and wanted. It partly reflects heightened fears of US recession - which would see ballooning of US deficit - and may also be revenge selling by sovereign holders in tariff-hit countries. This bond market turmoil also increases risk of margin calls and forced sales by over exposed institutional investors. Another huge day.

If the US government struggles in its auctions when selling new government bonds to fund its current deficit, at that juncture surely Trump capitulates to market pressure. The other actors to watch are the central banks - the Fed, Bank of England, Bank of Japan, European Central Bank - and whether they are obliged to act intervene by cutting interest rates and providing liquidity

Our final hymn being “He who would valiant be”, it seemed a good time for the Cathedral premier of my Scherzo on Monk’s Gate, from the Sussex Suite composed for and dedicated to Sam and Frances.

Sir Edward Elgar was, arguably, this country's greatest composer and he is the featured composer on this week's @BBCRadio3 Composer of the Week. This episode about his struggles with being a Catholic in an Anglican country might well be of interest. https://t.co/VVAPmronse

Parishes will doubtless be aware of the new lectionary from Advent 2024. We will be organising briefings and preparing resources on the musical implications in due course, but feel free to be in touch with any questions in the meantime. https://t.co/hLDTI0odGS
