On my way, Clacton.

There can be only one.

This. A thousand times THIS.

Brutal pensions stuff.

This is excellent and well worth a watch! 🇺🇸

Pensions fireworks. This is quite a read.

There is something fundamentally flawed with how the costs of TPS are passed on to post-92 universities.

It’s fine. Everything’s fine. You all just keep burning stuff. I’m sure we can adapt later… 🔥 🌍

So after 250 years is it better to have a King or a President? Discuss…

Prostate cancer.

The pensions industry has a startlingly short memory… and a naive belief that all the bad things that can happen have already happened or have already been perfectly hedged.

Massive pensions savings for the post-92 universities. Surely bonkers that public sector pension costs are determined with this level of volatility? @prospectpension.bsky.social @daviesofbrixton.bsky.social @stevewebb1.bsky.social

It’s a shame none of those female Labour MPs was bold enough to stand to be Leader…

If you’re not yet familiar with what “wet bulb temperature” means…

Delightful photo!

“Margaret was addressed as Queen of Scots, much to the chagrin to her younger brother, Prince Henry” 😂 #Tudors

Share this far and wide… just in case anyone hasn’t been paying attention… 🌎 🔥

There is a lot of good fun in this trail e.g. “I asked the Palace. They said they're not answering any questions at all” 😂

If only someone had warned us about the consequences of climate change years ago. Oh hang on…

“Extremely liberal” “Class warrior” I mean you’d aspire to get called things like this, right?

“Baroness Brown, chair of the CCC's Adaptation Committee, criticised the ‘woeful’ performance of successive governments in tackling the present and future threats facing the UK from climate change”

🔥

You’d have thought this would encourage all politicians to unite in tackling climate change as a top priority. The economic costs of extreme weather are gargantuan. 🌍 🔥 ♻️

The tar (do we still use that word?) melting on the pavements in 1976 is one of my earliest memories.

Nearly every conversation today… ☀️ ⚽️

Rise of the Machines.

Apposite.

How London can you get? 😎 🇬🇧

I really like the FT but not sure I can forgive them for this chart…

There’s a tiny little risk the public might come to see this all as a little bit entitled especially if there is no debate or competition at all. The question is who’s the next PM in the 21st Century not who’s the next medieval monarch in the 12th…

This is definitely the question the nation wants answering. Pensions and politics.

And the King of the North is marching on Westminster…

It’s a good argument.

Gardener. 👨‍🌾

It’s going to be a long day…

This. 🔥 🌎

Anything happening with gilt rates yet? #alwaysapensionsangle

“Well interviewed…” 😂

The King of the North marching on Westminster is all a little bit… medieval… @susanabernethy2.bsky.social

I think I’d be OK…

Banx in today’s FT. 😂 🗳️

Today’s FT. Politics and Higher Education international reputation.

🍿

“Reportedly” so not sure how much credence we give this but clearly a slap in the face for social mobility…

“It wasn’t an incident until the gunfire started.” Classic quote off Newsnight! 🚤

Anyway…

It’s fine. Everything’s fine. Move along.

A philosophical question. So if a friend of mine left X on principle a while ago but still bought SpaceX shares does that make them a big fat hypocrite? 🤔

Not Bluesky then? 😊
