Great @pmdfoster.bsky.social piece implicitly raises Q of the UK-EU Customs Union option, much inferior for the UK to SM but could facilitate economic security alignment. On the other hand M.Sandbu in FT Free Lunch Jul 9 argues that "Europe's 'China shock panic is ill informed".

“I bought the car” “Yes, but then you drove it off a cliff and it exploded.” “Let us not forget it was I who secured the car finance, I who arranged the insurance, I who chose the seat trim. Before me there had been no new car for many years.” “OK but we don’t have a car now.” “Goodbye”

Becoming increasingly radicalised by the fact he cannot stop focussing on winning the election, even as he resigns in failure.

Starmer says Britain is 'stronger and fairer than it was 2 years ago' Starmer says: I’m about to visit His Majesty the King to offer my resignation and close the book on my time as prime minister. My work is done. In six and a half years I took our party from a historic defeat in 2019, changed it so it was fit to face the country, and won a landslide general election victory in 2024. Since then, it has been the privilege of my life to serve you and this great country as prime minister, and I am confident that Britain is now stronger and fairer than it was two years ago.

An interesting thread on what seems like a real shame: Timpson was an effective, unusual and principled CEO – and a real expert committed to prisons reform. His appointment was one of the most interesting innovations the Starmer era.

Cassia Rowland@cassiarowland.bsky.social · 2w ago

The day’s first casualty: James Timpson resigns as prisons minister. This is a big surprise! Timpson had a long history as a prisons reformer before entering government and seen as one of Starmer’s more innovative & exciting appointments. He’s also delivered a big change programme in gov. So: why?

Brilliant World Cup clash between France and England. Two outstanding teams gave everything, played with passion, respected the referee, and showed genuine sportsmanship from first whistle to last. It was a reminder that fierce competition and mutual respect can go hand in hand.
