The economy grew at an annual rate of just 0.7% at the end of 2025, down from the initially reported 1.4% estimate.
Trump is running the economy just like he ran his businesses — straight into the ground. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbh9SW5Cgqg
Ah, OK. That's a different matter if you get turfed out early!
Mostly in that London in the '80s. Less so in the Worcestershire countryside in the '70s. Not sure it's a thing now without a bobby on a bike.
A bold recruitment graphic for event volunteers on a vibrant pink background. At the top, a black speech bubble with white text reads "STEWARDS WE NEED YOU!" Below this is a large, stylized black-and-white illustration of a hand pointing directly at the viewer. A pill-shaped black button at the bottom says "SIGN UP NOW" next to a green arrow, and the "TOGETHER" alliance logo is featured at the very bottom.
Calling all crowd guides, vibe checkers and good-energy guardians.
28 March is going to be massive. To make sure the day stays safe, joyful and powerful, we need stewards to support and coordinate the flow of the march.

That's nuts Ron.
It's a pity she wasn't sat next to a gentleman! Perhaps lobby for those drop down oxygen masks you get on planes.
Going live with Feargal Sharkey on Bold Politics shortly.
Absolutely brilliant conversation on water, bond markets and the future of the UK:

Well he's bored of peace for sure.
Bored of peace it seems.
Iran is attacked, Iran fires back, and now it's defense to attack them some more. Impeccable Starmer logic 🤦♀️🤦♂️🤦♀️🤦♂️
That's a solenoid choice.
My Great Grandma was a suffragette. My Grandmother survived the Nazis. My Mother championed equal pay and respect for AIDS sufferers. Now it's my generation's turn to step up and show our daughters the power of peaceful protest and standing together for what is good and decent.
It’s our turn to show up: for what’s good and decent.
Let us know your reason for marching 👇

An aerial satellite view of a city serves as the background for an announcement graphic. In the center, a cream-colored rectangular box with rounded corners displays text in two different styles. At the top, the words "START POINT ANNOUNCED" are written in bold, black, sans-serif capital letters. Below this, hand-written style text in orange-red reads: Park Lane, Central London 28th March @ 12pm At the bottom of the cream box is a black and white logo that reads "TOGETHER" in a stylized, bold font, with the words "AGAINST THE FAR RIGHT" in smaller block letters underneath. The background map shows a dense urban area with historical buildings and a large green park featuring a body of water on the left side.

Let’s march together for unity: Central London, 28 March.

NEW Stewart Lee column 🔥🎉
“The Death of Human Civilisation was announced on Tuesday afternoon on LBC radio by Mullins, a tax-fearing Reform donor with the perma-tanned hue of the Dubai-domiciled, and not a cobra in sight. Perhaps it’s the banal full stop 300,000 years of evolution deserves.”

Government unveils biggest overhaul to water in a generation
If Labour won’t nationalise water, their “big overhaul” is a con.
Sewage in our rivers. Bills going up. Profits protected.
Public services should be in public hands.
It really stinks that Ofwat, under pressure from Treasury, is putting the public interest second. And we're lining them up to be sued if they continue down this path. 👇
Amazingly, Zahawi only got round to deleting the below after the press conference announcing his defection to Reform.
Finding guilty everyone who's not white and nicely spoken would do it even quicker - but it would also (for similar reasons) be a bad idea.

Keir Starmer says he wants to establish facts by *watching Donald Trumps press conference.*
People said giving him a second state visit was a genius move of strategy - really seems to have paid off.
Special relationship - alive and kicking.
The kind of roofscape Cezanne might have had a stab at after finishing his big shop. The view does go some way to improving the rather dull coffee!
