Yes. Very stone tablet we are the only source of information you’ll ever need not to include links to official public documents.

Helping the neurodivergent pre-teen plan his week. Quite a feat to convince him that ‘learn Elvish’ doesn’t fit into the urgent box. (Also I feel seen 😆🧝‍♀️)

Spent the morning being told by investors that the UK needs to cut disability benefits. We use ours to pay for my transport to work so I can go and earn good money and pay massive amounts of tax, and for kid's autism therapy and occupational therapy we can't get from school, council or NHS.

Bonfire of the ESG Policies. Big investors from all over the world are starting to big up defence stocks, money managers from Denmark to Liechtenstein told us. For some, keeping Europe safe (for profit) is now 'impact investing.' Gotta love the shape shift. www.reuters.com/markets/euro...

Can confirm I know absolutely no one who has pulled a child out of private school yet. Private school is like a religion for those who observe.

Child had a geography lesson on UK migration data and over dinner asked me why the charts didn’t seem to make sense. Aaaah let me tell you about the employment data I said, eyes gleaming. And then he said he’d prefer to go to his room early to read. 🤷‍♀️

Sorry about the end of the Trump Trade for all those who observed. But the clue was in the name.

As a Brit, always bowled over on the continental European leg of Eurostar where there’s a train to another country roughly every 12 minutes and no passport queue.

Legal/property followers: I am researching what property buyers can do when an estate agent fails to disclose material information such as structural damage to a house before the offer stage. Any tips?

I have spent the past few days being told by investors ‘what Rachel Reeves has to do is raise taxes.’ I mean, I agree, but total headspin to hear this from the money crowd.

Today I discovered that the Dutch word for PR/press officer transliterates as ‘word feeder.’ Sent me down quite the rabbit hole about ‘not wanting this to be true but actually for the most part it is.’

Kudos to M&S for achieving such positive GB News coverage entirely independently of any commercial relationship.

Ok so I know it’s a bit of a trend to diagnose narcissism on stuff like victim-blaming and gaslighting. And I’m not a doctor. But am I missing anything here?

Have you heard of the value add obsession? Its a way to make an organisation look good by manufacturing progress. I think its destructive, especially to top performers. Let me give you the school example first. A kid scores max possible results in baseline tests, then also in termly exams...

@garynunn.bsky.social thank you for this. I spent years mentoring the ‘working class gifted’ and telling them how much more they were worth to employers vs well supported kids with the same grades. This observation isn’t made often enough: www.theneweuropean.co.uk/i-was-a-soci...

Brings back memories of those wasted minutes in the university bar failing to convince some public school boy I was not a ‘Mockney Blur fan’ but genuinely from Milton Keynes with a genuine Estuary accent. www.theneweuropean.co.uk/i-was-a-soci...

It may be a bubble, but its everyone's bubble. From my Reuters colleague Mike Dolan on how much US households have benefited from the Wall Street stock boom.

Here's the thing that worries me long term about the US tech stocks that totally dominate global markets and my pension - addiction. There's a bunch of US class actions claiming Tik Tok brain etc is a huge public health risk. They read like tobacco suits. Tobacco stocks trade on low p/es.

US markets are looking wobbly. Tech stocks are under fire and that may well be because leveraged hedge funds who rode the dollar through the 'Trump trade' are v exposed to the president spooking markets and would sell big tech in a nano second to meet margin calls. www.reuters.com/markets/glob...

Lol. AI. New paradigm or pointless reason to keep all our pensions hostage to seven companies. I just can’t decide.

What’s the likelihood of today’s 11 year olds reading long form journalism. Many got YouTube age 2 and their brains are primed for the dopamine hit of a crazy video or exciting image every 15 seconds. I feel like Quaker Oats after high fructose corn syrup was invented.
