🤝A packed room this morning as we tackled one of Britain's most urgent challenges: the one million young people not in education, employment or training.

Alan Milburn, fresh from his landmark review, joined @michaelgove to discuss school readiness, welfare reform, and why getting young people into work must be a national priority.📸

Highlights👇

🚨Milburn: Half of young people out of work and claiming a health or disability benefit will still be claiming it 15 years later.

"If that's our aspiration as a country, boy oh boy are we in trouble."

In response to @Jo_Coburn, Milburn says there’s now appetite in Labour for welfare reform.

Rishi Sunak weighs in on Keir Starmer's leadership woes:

“It would be wrong to think just changing the person at the top is going to be enough.”

I left the Economics of AI conversation organized by @ProSyn in Poland with a simple but uncomfortable thought: we are underestimating both the speed and the stakes of this technological shift 🤖

Great to share the panel with @cori_crider , Soňa Muzikárová and Elsa Sependa, and many thanks to @Jo_Coburn  for leading such a thoughtful discussion.

“It’s a serious blow to Britain’s reputation and to its soft power overseas.”

@Jo_Coburn asks: Is the 0.7 per cent commitment to international aid effectively over?

A little something for the weekend 👇🏻

[The Spectator @spectator]

On the Edition this week: does Nigel Farage really want to be Prime Minister?

Charles Moore, Jo Coburn & James Heale discuss Reform's route to power. While Farage may win the battle of the Right, it is less clear that he'll get the keys to Number Ten.

Plus: is the Iran crisis 'Suez in reverse'? And should we defund – or defend – the BBC?

[Karl Turner MP @KarlTurnerMP]

Spoke with @Jo_Coburn earlier today. The idea that we try switching leader now is a considerable mistake. We MUST get behind the PM. Listen to my interview, please? PLP colleagues must realise that the Tories tried that trick, they paid for it. Sit tight!

[Jo Coburn @Jo_Coburn]

@faisalislam Damn I missed it!

[Times Radio @TimesRadio]

“The defection of former Conservative cabinet ministers to Reform now looks like more than a passing spasm.”

Nigel Farage risks fraying his populist pitch as he welcomes more Tory politicians who he blames for ruining the country, says @Jo_Coburn.

Opinion | Without Farage, Reform would collapse like a sandcastle

Nigel Farage’s success is real. Reform’s rise is real. But longevity requires structure, not just sentiment

“That political calculation may look less clever with time.”

The consequences of Reeves’s “spend now, tax later” budget will land squarely on the middle class, just in time for the next election, says @Jo_Coburn.

“The real test isn't whether the talks are happening, it's whose interests the final document truly serves.”

Trump’s peace plan has “injected urgency into diplomacy” but whether Putin has "any intention of honouring it" is the real question, says @Jo_Coburn.

[Times Radio @TimesRadio]

“I can't remember a budget that's generated this much nervousness or this much noise.”

The public mood has decided things are “tough and likely to stay that way”, whatever the chancellor says on Wednesday's budget, says Times Radio’s @Jo_Coburn.
