Interesting read. Perhaps the French have a point about lack of monitoring and enforcement of labour market and trading standards in the UK. I’m in favour of ID cards but this is a good example of where they would make zero difference. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Naomi is I think bang on here. I have said many times to many people that AI is like any other technology shift: it changes jobs and how we work. Naomi builds on that (and expresses it much better), and lands on "learn the skill of discernment". Do read this.

New from FM: Rule changes from 11 November to affect family members of stateless people | Djamilla Hitchins

This speech from Rachel Reeves is kind of frustrating because it shows that the Government can command the airwaves when it wants That's something it has almost totally failed to do so far - over challenging racism, boosting the laws it has passed, tackling Reform, rebutting Tory ILR plans, etc etc

One of the many reasons extending settlement qualification period to 10 years is a terrible idea. Precarious status makes it harder to get training, better jobs, etc. The policy is economic as well as social self harm. on.ft.com/49vTQC8
