Brilliant James @ApellaAdvisors 'Workforce issues could be a cornerstone of a genuinely productive partnership between business and the Labour Party, if political conversation can catch up with the reality of the modern labour market' 🎯 thetimes.co.uk/article/the-co…
Looking forward to a great conversation this morning at Schools & Academies event @ExCeLLondon with @Julia_Cleverdon @AnthonySeldon @cricketman71 on need for a Long Term Plan for Education @SAA_Show #SAASHOW
More generally, does conventional industrial strategy underrate the importance of talent allocation - by which I mean encouraging (and potentially inducing) the smartest and most skilled people to work on the most important things?

In which I get quite grumpy explaining how govt announced increase in defence spending of £75bn at cost of £4.4bn. Misleading, inconsistent & opaque way of describing an important policy. Labour are no better - promise to reach 2.5% of GDP "when conditions allow" is meaningless

The United Nations is the bedrock of international law, which the @Conservatives have undermined for too long. I visited @antonioguterres in New York to make clear the next @UKLabour government will redouble support for the @UN, back reform and restore future funding to UNRWA.
I love when stupid questions get batted back with this level of calm vitriol. Nancy Pelosi is a class act. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇

“It's like the Government saying 'we're going to legislate against gravity because it's inconvenient” Chair of the NHS Confederation Victor Adebowale says the Rwanda plan, costing around £233,000 pp, is unworkable #bbcqt bbc.in/3WdMnks
🇯🇵🇬🇧 The Emperor and Empress of Japan will pay a State Visit to the UK as the guests of His Majesty The King in late June this year.
Waiting lists are just south of 8 million. 40,000 children wait 2 years for mental health support. Rishi Sunak has no idea what that’s like. And no plan to deal with it. Only Labour has a plan to get people off waiting lists and back to work.
HELP! Chance in a million - I am looking for a Champions League Final Ticket for the very good son of a very dear old school friend. I know it would make him the happiest boy from Tipperary in the world. Please DM if you can make his wish come true - long shot I know!
“The fact we had to change the law to declare Rwanda a safe country, when the courts had looked at the evidence and concluded otherwise” Labour’s Wes Streeting believes the amount of time and public money spent on this bill is a “disgrace” #bbcqt bbc.in/3WdMnks

If you're serious about HMT doing growth as well as finance, I think it should take responsibility for skills policy. Skills is currently in DfE, which has a certain logic (implementation is mostly through further education) but means it can be disconnected from economic strategy

Completely agree Vivienne A number of post 92 universities are more & more attractive to international students, including @NorthumbriaUni which is also as or more research intensive as many @RussellGroup To curtail their right to compete on a level playing field is just wrong
If you slash international student visas you will a) slash export earnings b) slash income to towns & cities across the country which can ill afford to lose it and c) slash jobs and opportunities- already 50+ unis are making cuts to jobs and courses. thetimes.co.uk/article/fc88e9…
The Mail is toxic, says the Met. They’re right.
This is an inaccurate headline that will only fuel community concerns. The decision to cover the memorial was taken by park authorities, not the police. As the paper’s own article makes clear, it is a precaution Royal Parks have taken for a number of different events.
