Well done, and thank you, everyone at @officialbha.bsky.social.

Useful reminder from Peter Kellner on the problems we refuse to acknowledge are getting better, and the politics of hopelessness that this breeds open.substack.com/pub/kellnerp...

Credit where it’s due: Scott Galloway cooked here

One day politicians will have to treat the public like grown ups and force them to grapple with reality. Until then, this is the trap we are stuck in.

@rshereme.bsky.social replays a great explanation from Tim Salmon about the yawning gap between what Trumpists think #tariffs will do and what they are actually likely to do. (Screen-grabs from @linkedin.com)

This is very good from @hsjeditor.bsky.social on the government's #NHS reorganisation U-turn, going back to the aims of the Lansley reforms and on to what Streeting is attempting now. So many parallels between the two, with some key lessons having not been learned. www.hsj.co.uk/comment/stre...

This is one of the sharpest prices of analysis and commentary the Kings Fund have produced for some time...

There is within the NHS a cascading system where people in positions of leadership are asked to do impossible things, and so spend their time constructing ways of keeping responsibility at arms length. It got worse under her watch.

I think that totality of problems needed consistent and clear leadership that could prioritise effectively and create an improvement system.

This is a beautiful tribute.
