New figures I’ve obtained from the Bank of England show a persistently high proportion of new mortgages are set to run past pension age - over 2 in 5 - even as mortgage rates start to fall. Big implications for the adequacy of pensions savings if this continues: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

First SoS resignation within 6 months of a new government isn’t that remarkable anymore but there’s some interesting politics in how quickly this has happened.

I think I’m probably one of the few people that quite enjoy civil service ‘timelines’ like this. This feels like the right thing to do from an economic/policy perspective but risky from a political perspective given the narratives around the Budget.

This is why the pace of AI development at the frontier isn't the point. It's the pace of the rest of the economy and its myriad processes that counts. And why, as the Economist argues, in terms of comparisons to the computer revolution, we're probably in the 1970s not the 1990s 5/5

"Computers unleashed economic growth. Will artificial intelligence?" www.economist.com/finance-and-... is a nice analysis from The Economist - in particular, because it bolsters my assumption that AI will struggle to have the impact of the computer revolution...1/

Important news 🇬🇧! We do sort of have a written constitution after all, or more accurately, a mapping of the writings that are constitutional. Well done the Commons Library team (library! Yes!)

Looking forward to seeing the full details of the white paper this week. It’ll be interesting to see if/how links are drawn between this and other key government agendas on work, health and industrial strategy through a place based approach.

Always great to see analyses like these coming out of the government’s data labs. This kind of data sets up orgs to really understand their effectiveness and lends itself well to analysis of their economic impact - critical for funders, commissioners and the charity itself. Do read Ben’s thread!
