There is a lot of talk in Whitehall that the Chancellor will significantly reduce fiscal headroom in the forthcoming budget to avoid bigger tax rises. If he doesn’t knock this on the head pretty sharpish - against the backdrop of government bond prices falling across the developed world - he could find that the interest rate the government has to pay could increase in a very painful way. Not quite Truss style recklessness but not super smart

Only Canadians would make their point in such a special way. So proud of my fellow Canadians and their amazing creativity-

If you can, get a ticket for the Bayeux Tapestry (it’s actually an embroidery) @britishmuseum It’s breathtaking in its detail and depth and so beautifully presented. You’ll kick yourself if you don’t get to see it.
Merci bien a nos amis francais

So, @tfwrail, please explain why my elderly mother's replacement bus (meant to be a train) from Shrewsbury to Aberystwyth, stopped & dumped passengers in Machynlleth? Passengers forced to wait for regular service bus onwards! Shocking "service" & standards. @tfwrailSupport

What is the point of fame if not to use it to do some good? Hugh Bonneville’s pleas for humanity in Gaza — on #BBCLauraK and in other interviews — has been articulate, dignified and profoundly moving. A fine actor, a fine man.

Yesterday it was impossible to walk down the street in Davos without people stopping to want to talk about the Orange Man Baby. Today it is @MarkJCarney they want to talk about. Doubtless the OMB will have some petty act of revenge lined up but that speech today was real leadership

A really interesting discussion with @the_brc @SaraLlanover about support for the Welsh high streets and the need for action on business rates. It was great to hear @SKurtzCWSP reiterate @WelshConserv support for town centre businesses.

A brief summary of what we have accomplished during the week with the friends of Ukraine.
With Denmark – new agreements on coproduction. The Danish model of investing in Ukraine’s own DIB has proven its effectiveness. Joint work on the territory of Denmark, and soon in other key partner countries, is allowing us to scale up even more. This applies to drones and many other types of urgently needed weapons.
As per drones, we’ve also reached an agreement with one of the leading American companies to significantly increase our joint efforts.
We had an extremely fruitful conversation with the President of the United States yesterday, during which we discussed air defense. I’m grateful for the readiness to assist. Patriot systems are the key to defending against ballistic threats.
I also want to praise Sweden, there is a decision on a new defense support package. We are actively working with Germany to speed up decisions on air defense. Latvia has also decided to provide a new defense package – thank you.
And I thank everyone standing with Ukraine, and with our people.
