    Lobbying, lawyers and a media blitz: the fight to kill the Church of England’s £100m slavery compensation fund

    …t opponents was a Church of England vicar who appeared on GB News days after the fund was announced in January 2023, to say it would put parishioners off donating to the church. “We keep hearing that there is no money left,” he said. “And now suddenly, they’ve found £100m down the back of the sofa, to pay for this. You can imagine how I felt.” A torrent of similar views has followed, with significant coverage in media organisations that are owned or backed by Marshall. The Spectator, which Marshall bought in 2024 for £100m, has hosted repeated criticism, including one piece by Biggar entitle…

    Heathrow’s third runway is a bottomless money pit. Stop it now

    It won’t promote growth, will take decades and will swallow up billions of taxpayers’ money, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins Infrastructure sends politicians berserk. Propose more money for the health service or reopening youth clubs and frowns break out all round. Can we afford it? But shout infrastructure and cheers go up.

    Shabana Mahmood says Labour party wants to create ‘fairness in our immigration system’ – as it happened

    …he Labour MP Liam Byrne still gets criticised for the note he left in the Treasury after the 2010 election to his Tory successor saying “there is no money”. The note (often wrongly remember as saying there is no money left) was a joke, written when Byrne expected to be succeeded by a Tory with whom he had a friendly relationship, but the Lib Dem David Laws got the job instead. Laws gave it George Osborne and David Cameron and they spent years quoting it as alleged proof that Gordon Brown had bankrupted the country. In his speech today John Healey used a similar line. I did not quote it earli…

    John Healey backs growth but says Labour must be honest on spending

    …eceipts by 2029-30. With the public finances under pressure from soaring long-term bond yields, which hit an 18-year high last week, Healey argued that stronger growth was the most sustainable way to balance the books. However, he also signalled that his budget would require Labour “being honest about the need to control government spending”. Economists have warned the chancellor could be forced to increase taxes or cut spending in response to rising spending pressures and the economic fallout from the war in Iran triggering turmoil in global bond markets. The UK’s 10-year borrowing costs ro…
