If you’d told me 10 years ago I’d team up with @edballs I’d never have believed you. But life is full of great surprises. This autumn my frenemy and I will bring you a podcast that will explain how political decisions are really made and explore the big economic questions we face

The disk of faith: showing how we should seek to resolve differences not by tangential negotiation and conflict, but by moving radially towards the centrality of unconditional love - whereby the further we make that journey, the closer we come to one another

An interesting analysis - thanks. We need to embrace a more egalitarian, disintermediated form of capitalism: with inter- generational rebalancing and mass participation in ownership and responsibility for all. This requires a total change in mindset - not just ‘levelling-up’

Where does today leave Tories like me, who see something beyond the deficit-funded tax-cutting libertarians and the Osbornite austerity merchants? First, we’re realists, so while today is grim we must accept a correction was needed to restore confidence after the Budget disaster.

The poem quoted by King George VI in his 1939 Christmas Day broadcast, given to him by the then Princess Elizabeth. May it continue to inspire her soul in the same way that she has inspired so many over the past seventy years as our Queen.

“I said to the man who stood at the Gate of the Year, ‘Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown.’ And he replied, 'Go out into the darkness, and put your hand into the hand of God. That shall be to
you better than light, and safer than a known way.'”

Well done, Joe Biden! A really serious move towards inter-generational rebalancing: let’s hope @trussliz will get the message. This is a key move towards introducing a more egalitarian form of capitalism, helping young people to achieve their potential in adult life

As inflation soars to 9% today, @ShareRadioUK explains how targeted help from philanthropists could take some of the pressure off those worst affected - if Government is prepared to act as a catalyst to enable that targeting. Listen on Spotify for more -

Thanks for visiting us this afternoon,Rob - and for our discussion on how to make inter-generational rebalancing a central part of the levelling up agenda, thereby empowering young people to achieve their potential in adult life

The @sharefound in Aylesbury does excellent work managing Junior ISA & Child Trust Fund schemes for looked-after children. But it can be hard to ensure the money is claimed when they reach 18. Good to discuss how to improve that & hear about ways to increase financial awareness
