Burnham might be mulling breaking up the Treasury. He’s right to want to reform the centre, but no.10 and cabinet office should be his focus. HMT reorg would be a distraction and would not fix underlying problems

This is a complete joke. What is the point of a T-level if you can complete the entire 'work placement' at home or in college without ever setting foot in a workplace? Makes a mockery of the entire programme in a shameless attempt to prop up numbers.

With the Peter Mandelson appointment as UK ambassador to the US back in the headlines, it's worth understanding how the UK government's national security vetting system actually works. Our explainer sets out the process:

Another charity -

They spent two years finding out something ‘didn't work’. That’s great news. — Impact > Simplified
A two-year study. Three universities. Randomised controlled trials. And the result? The intervention didn't work. But that isn’t the end of the story.

It is completely mad that the government is expelling high flying Sudanese students from British universities - from a scheme that is explicitly aimed at the future leaders of countries.

One factor in the rapid rise of petrol prices is the govt's Fuel Finder data. Real time price data is useful to retailers as well as consumers. It used to take a day to get competitor prices and another to change at forecourts. The new system has halved this lag.
