Are Labour set to pull off an upset by winning the mayoralty in Tory-dominated York and North Yorkshire? With the contest between @keane_duncan and @DSkaith on a knife-edge, I've got this *spicy* quote from a local Conservative... Today's Northern Agenda thenorthernagenda.co.uk
In this interview with Michael Gove, who compares the Government's plan to tackle regional inequalities to a "half-built cathedral", Gove reportedly asked the Treasury for a council tax cut for northern households - which Rishi Sunak rejected as Chancellor.ft.com/content/d68d96…
For the avoidance of any doubt on a Sunday afternoon Rishi Sunak *will not* be calling a general election tomorrow The plan is still to hold an election in the Autumn - most likely November 14 - although after the locals it could all become much less predictable
DEFECTION - Tory MP and former minister, Dr Dan Poulter, is quitting the party and has joined Labour - he tells me Tories no longer values public services he could no longer ‘look people in the eye’ and stay on as a Conservative - more on @BBCNews in a sec
‘Despicable. Atrocious. Unacceptable in our open, tolerant society.’ Rarely have I been so utterly dumbfounded at an interview presented to me as a story that I’ve told the team to hit the brakes so we can gather all context; sense-check all evidence. By @Masonboyowen

NEW: I understand Dame Diana Johnson has appointed David Neal as an adviser to the Home Affairs Select Committee she chairs. Neal was sacked as chief borders inspector by James Cleverly for leaking his unpublished reports to the media. This will go down very badly in govt…
If Labour wins the next election, do you think you will be better or worse off than otherwise? Better: 27% Worse: 32% The same: 29% via @RedfieldWilton Read more: buff.ly/3W6bQMD
BREAKING Chris Cash, the Parliamentary aide accused of spying for China, is to been charged with espionage offences. He will appear in mags court on Friday. He will face charges alongside Christopher Berry.
EXCL - Rishi Sunak reveals a key manifesto pledge. The PM says he will keep the 2 child benefit cap if reelected. It is part of his mission to curb Britain's ballooning benefits bill thesun.co.uk/news/politics/…
There's a big debate raging about whether these figures are credible. Plenty of people in government believe they're exaggerated. Even if they are not, it's quite extraordinary that so much money would be invested in an asset class the government had vowed to make valueless
EXC: A top British diplomat who left the Foreign Office in January is now lobbying G7 governments over the Russian diamond ban on behalf of De Beers. Emma Wade-Smith, once dubbed the UK's "secret weapon" in the US, is pushing for changes to enforcement. telegraph.co.uk/world-news/202…

Exclusive @JLPartnersPolls >>> — the age at which British voters become more likely to choose the Conservative Party over Labour has soared from 39 at the last election to **70 years-old** — working age voters have turned their backs on the Tories bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Genuinely astonishing stat. Of course Starmer did his postgrad at Oxford, so this would be progress in the classic piecemeal English style
In fact, if @Keir_Starmer becomes the 58th PM of this country, he’ll be the FIRST to have completed an undergraduate degree at an English university that was not Oxford or Cambridge. Not sure whether that’s a “fancy that” or a moment in “breaking barriers to opportunity”.
