It was an honour and a joy to welcome Prof. Julie Smith this week to the University of Cologne’s Dept. of Political Science for two packed days of discussions on EU-UK relations, British-German relations & the changing international order and European integration.

NEW: Net migration for year ending June is 672,000 Nearly a record high. Up compared to last June, down a bit compared to December’s estimate. Deeply uncomfortable for a govt whose promise has been to suppress both legal & illegal migration (though prefers to talk of latter).

Cowley's rule of by-election analysis is that if a party wins a constituency by 5, 50 or 500 votes, the political lesson and significance should essentially be the same as if they lose it by 5, 50 or 500 - yet it won't be.

Yes, EU relations are going to be crucial for UK growth. But also for regulatory policy, immigration, foreign policy, energy, Northern Ireland, most likely skills. Already is. And any UK government will be hobbled that can't admit this. As the current one is.

A weak Sunak will try to present himself as a winner who can rally the party behind him. In reality the Tory party conference will be all about who succeeds him. My column for ARD @tagesschau from Manchester. (german)

The upside for Cons is that activating and unifying the base behind an issue like imm helps to put firm floor under their support, perhaps a floor they can build from. The risk is that strong focus on imm risks looking out of touch with diff concerns of voters outside the base

Rutherglen and Hamilton West recall petition: 11,896 for recall (14.7%); threshold to clear was 10%. Lowest figure for a successful petition so far - one unsuccessful had 9.4%. First recall in Scotland. A by-election will now be held. Smart money on Labour.
