It’s Polling Tuesday for @SamCoatesSky and @AnneMcElvoy. Did the party conferences shift the dial on anything with voters? Did the Tories see any traction for their promise to scrap stamp duty? Listen to find out ⬇️

Starmer took on Farage – and Badenoch promised to slash our stamp duty. So did the big conference moments move the polling dial and if not for the big two, who’s the winner? We talk about that, more on Jonathan Powell friends and foes - and why is @TiceRichard unwinding

Word. My favourite (true). story from a US 0.01% family was when the grandmother discovered Uniqlo is a thing -and insisted on buying all of the dismayed family padded gilets instead of Ralph Lauren booty for the holidays
Does anyone on Wall Street have the power to end the Patagonia vest era and return the money men to chalk stripe suits and Leonard Logsdail? It’s just weird having the Masters of the Universe dressed like Used Bookstore Proprietors from Vermont.

The problem with where government has ended up on China spy case is that message carriers have to speak in crossword clues like this:)
'He was not involved in material considerations in relation to the evidence.' 'What do you mean by that?' @lewis_goodall presses Bridget Phillipson over National Security Adviser Jonathan Powell's role in the collapse of the China spy trial.

Absolutely love these posts. I first visited is Germany in 1983 and it was always a strange Communist glamour to these big bold hoardings, promising a world of travel - which on closer inspection meant you could only go to Budapest and Prague w/o a visa.
