🎧 The first episode of Voternomics is here @MyStephanomics, @adwooldridge and @AllegraStratton will help listeners make sense of the elections that will affect markets, countries and economies like never before Their first guest: @nfergus ➡️ bloom.bg/3QmjXkB
Andy Street says he's campaigning on 'Brand Andy' in the West Midlands which means responsibility lies "with me" and not Rishi Sunak if he loses. “I can’t have it both ways. It’s my name on the ballot paper. I’m not trying to pass that off anywhere.” bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Andy Street tells @PronouncedAlva it’s on him if he loses next week, not Sunak. Something of a relief for PM ahead of locals crunch:

NEW Andy Street says he won't blame Rishi Sunak if he loses next week, in Bloomberg interview. It comes amid speculation he or Ben Houchen could call for Sunak's resignation if one of them loses on Thursday. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Great @EllenAMilligan piece on Brexit checks >>
Great @EllenAMilligan piece on Brexit checks >>
The UK will finally impose checks on EU fresh food next week. I've tracked the journey bacon takes from Denmark to the UK, to illustrate the new reality of Brexit - that while trade doesn't stop, it's about to become harder and that bit more expensive bloomberg.com/news/features/…

I do love Alex’s reads on a Saturday. Always something
NEW: @BloombergUK Saturday read * ‘Operation Save Rishi’ gave Sunak his best week as PM and will get him through the locals, allies believe * Mordaunt WON’T challenge PM, allies say plot’s fizzling out * Rwanda timeline sees July election talk ramp up bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Beating @PickardJE at his own reflection game
Heading back to Westminster today after a year off with this little guy. Looking forward to catching up with everyone. Special thanks to @RishiSunak for not calling that May election for straight after my return.
Amazing day out running the @LondonMarathon today -- perfect temperature and fantastic crowds as always. There's no marathon that compares for atmosphere. A massive congrats to the 18 MPs and 2 peers who ran ---and completed the course. (Brace yourselves, stats geeks:)
It’s why flights commencing sooner may be *more* politically damaging than being blocked by legal challenge/logistics: Perhaps 2 flights may take off before Rwanda’s capacity is full? Then an entire summer of small boat migrants with literally no plan to process or house them.
— govt privately hopes to do the first flight by end of May, or even sooner to help Sunak through the locals — No10 see it as a “gamechanger” and one of the last chances to reset the narrative before the election — others fear it opens up new problems bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
So not August / September then 😂 Do think December under priced. There are two obvs set piece ways of doing it: 1) Conference & 6 weeks takes you to November 2) Sunak 2 year anniversary & 6 weeks takes you to December
NEW: @BloombergUK Saturday read — Sunak is facing calls from some allies to name the election date to head off a leadership challenge after May 2 — Oct/Nov/Dec still the aim. Dec 12 is one date that’s been discussed — but June/July in play as a back-up bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
UPDATE Andrew Mitchell is already being called Sofa Sale - DFS (nb this is an update from a Tory, not from a more traditional enemy camp)
Andrew Mitchell has also been given the honorific title of Deputy Foreign Secretary 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
🗞️ ⚡️ Personal news: Thrilled to have joined the stellar Bloomberg News @business team in Rome to cover politics. Today’s my first day, so do send tips and scoops to [email protected].
economist.com/britain/2024/0… Bootlicking: a noble art
🧵Pretty much my first job in football was to cover Wimbledon FC in the early 90s for a sports news agency, Hayters. We did the jobs the nationals either couldn’t staff or didn’t want to do (‘Anyone for Orient v Hartlepool in the Zenith Data Systems Cup tonight?’)….
After I tweeted this thread, the Home Office phoned me up and said I was lying.
All the Braverman photos show her visiting the building site of Kigali's Bwiza Riverside Estate, as if it were being built specifically to our house asylum seekers....
The first person ever to run the entire length of Africa. Mission complete🫡
I don't think there's anything that annoys me more than American polling twitter's use of '+1' to denote a one point lead. '+1' implies change! Who needs to be told that 45% is one point higher than 44%?!
@alexwickham Abs ridiculous. I regret ditching Sky Italia for Sky UK.
“A chicken in every pot, a dodgy box for every telly”
If you’re gonna do a populist TV football policy in election year, surely it shouldn’t be 10 free-to-air Premier League games per season (meh), but scrapping the ridiculous 3pm blackout that means British fans can’t watch the majority of games but people abroad can?
Early contender for story of the day... "Sam Allardyce ‘photobombs’ Princess Beatrice after thinking photographers were there for him" telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/03/1…
Interesting strategy to sell yourself as both a straight-talker and a liar
NEW: Lee Anderson admits to press huddle he was “throwing you lot off the scent” when he formally denied he was planning to join Reform. A new one for the lexicon. Asked why he lied he said “that’s politics darling”.
📈 I am joining The Times as senior data journalist. I'm excited to join a brilliant team and do stories and investigations on lots of big topics, including going back to covering politics in a big election year. I start at the end of this month.
Oh no - another round of May election speculation on the way
