Well, more or less as expected..markets giving Healey benefit of the doubt despite halving of Reeve's 'headroom , 2027 growth downgrade, and unclear spending review assumptions. But will mood be maintained once accompanying detailed documents are analysed? @Radix_UK

.@BarackObama: When you've been campaigning as long as I have, you can tell when an election comes along that just feels a little bit different. Where people are so ready for something new, something better, so sick and tired of being sick and tired that everywhere you go it feels like change is in the air. After 2 years of chaos, cruelty, corruption, and incompetence, the likes of which we have not seen in modern times, you get a chance to say, enough is enough.

What are @andyburnham priorities? Important @fionaharvey piece shows Government’s Warm Homes programme, which he is planning to cut, would provide far more jobs and cut bills very much more than North Sea drilling he seems about to approve. theguardian.com/environment/…

A typical data centre sucks up 300,000 gallons of water a day, enough to supply 1000 high-using US households, research concludes. The people of this Indonesian island say that, as a result, they have had not a single drop of tap water in 3 months. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cqj6…

Great news. Sustainable practices by groups of U.K. farmers are getting dramatic increases in previously declining wildlife. One achieved a 347% increase in corn buntings and a 183% rise in butterflies, both sharply decreasing nationally, in a decade. timesofindia.indiatimes.com/…
