Starmer to meet Saudi crown prince in push for infrastructure cash. Why get cash from dictators at enormous cost when govt can create money, do QE for infrastructure, borrow at lower cost, tax the rich. Seems everything is for sale in the UK. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Momentous events in Syria this morning. The 54 year rule of the Assad family appears to be over, with rebel forces taking to state TV claiming President Assad has fled Damascus. The prime minister has said he will hand over power to the opposition and has called for elections.
