Good to see @EmmanuelMacron and @bundeskanzler knows who comes out of downing street first.

The best hope Putin had to get concessions from Ukraine was for Trump to use US leverage to obtain them.

Trump then ended all support for Ukraine, ending any leverage he had. The art of the deal.

[Scott Robertson @sarobertson_]

Zelenskyy: We've got messages that they are ready for meeting only if Ukraine will do what they decided in Anchorage. With all respect to the President of the United States, but you can't cut our country. You can't make decisions without us, about us. It's unacceptable and it will not bring peace.

Lewis Hamilton, you are worth £435 million. If you have such a problem with how much wealth one person can have, then start by donating your hundreds of millions?

These champagne socialists are just the worst.

450 million in net worth that lives in Monaco for tax reasons btw.

Seems he’s fine with hoarding his wealth.

[Ian Miller @ianmSC]

He’s dating Kim Kardashian, who has an estimated net worth of nearly $2 billion. He's worth nearly $500 million and lives in Monaco to avoid paying taxes in the UK.

Remarkable lack of self-awareness.

Over a decade ago when Brexit was suggested I made the case that the City of London would be fine and probably thrive. Many on here made fools of themselves on this issue.
These days even Bloomberg agrees....

@ladysowandsow UK avg mortgage rates since 1985 - mortgage rates are about normal. LH agree is an issue - but the sales cancer is spreading to the FH market too.

[Emma Fildes @emmafildes]

Lenders take further steps to reengage buyers, dropping average two and five year residential mortgage rates to 5.65% and 5.61% respectively overnight. These baby steps are welcomed but rates still have some distance to cover before they are averaging under 4% again. The MPC is scheduled to reevaluate the base rate on the 18th of June. For now bets are on them holding but with growing concern from members that inflation is on the rise, betting on them holding out for long could prove costly

[Dan Neidle @DanNeidle]

The UK has twice as many taxes as it had in 1993.

Not twice as much tax. Twice as many taxes.

Yes, we pay a bit more tax, but tax has got a whole lot more complicated. Time to reverse that.

[Department for Energy Security and Net Zero @energygovuk]

The logistics issues at Edinburgh & Glasgow airports over the weekend have now been resolved.

This was due to driver logistics & is not linked to the conflict in the Middle East or wider supply issues.

To be clear, UK airlines are not currently seeing any shortage of jet fuel.

[Javier Blas @JavierBlas]

COLUMN: The future of LNG.

Supply: away from LNG via the Strait of Hormuz.
Demand: away from LNG itself, into solar and coal.

"... It may sound counterintuitive [....] but the contours of a long-term surplus are already starting to emerge..."

@SpannersReady @MortgageMikeN2 @david99mac @moving_charlie SOLD flats in England are UP ~£14k in the last 5-years.
😬Renting with Charlie "forecast" properties (not just flats) to be down 35% by last summer.

@jstoker67 @MortgageMikeN2 Also, only just noticed you're not a fan of full stops huh!
