I’ve been writing about Andy Burnham in Manchester for a while. We’ve had a few run-ins but I think he has qualities that many people don’t appreciate and weaknesses that spell trouble.

I wrote this for @ManchesterMill - I hope it’s insightful and fair.

John Healey will face immense pressure over the next year after committing to spending 3% of GDP on defence by 2030 without saying how he will pay for it

It is a huge ***unfunded pledge*** - the IFS has previously said it's equivalent to £10billion a year in spending cuts or tax rises

The OBR suggests it could lead to swingeing cuts to unprotected departments. That or big tax rises

Whichever way you cut it announcing the target without saying how you will pay for it will only increase questions

If the situation deteriorates further in the Middle East it will only become more challenging...

Amazing: journalist does journalism to discover something, and because everyone is so used to people living by press release, they literally can't believe the journalist found it out on their own.

Here's the real story of this Budget, the can being kicked down the road. This Labour government is apparently planning spending cuts on most areas of public service spending of 2.6% per year between 2028-29 and 2031-32.

Pull the other one. It's got bells on.

NEW
On the basis of the numbers the Chancellor just read out in the House, the UK is set to borrow MORE in each of the next five years than previously planned

[Steven Swinford @Steven_Swinford]

The coming crunch;

The OBR says that it expects *no growth* in real earnings in 2027 and 2028 because of the impact of stealth taxes and higher prices

Real household disposable income is also expected to fall in the near term

For weeks, a strange and inept gang has smashed the windows of a clothes store near the British Museum... and stole nothing.

My @_TheLondoner story is a saga of Chinese mafia conspiracies, soot-covered robbers and late night visits from dodgy glaziers.

I’m not sure I’ve seen a Nigel Farage press conference quite this empty

[lottie ☕️ @spadobsessive]

its actually quite refreshing to have a PM whose embarrassing history involves raising money for charity, rather than burning £50 notes in front of homeless people and shagging pigs...
