Golden rule of British politics: Anything Francis Maude touches is a disaster.
Break EXC - Henry Newman replaces Lee Rowley as Kemi Badenoch’s Chief of Staff. Newman will now run LOTO. Lee Rowley is leaving LOTO to private sector. Francis Maude in as ad hoc advisor to LOTO.
School choice is the way, indeed, @GovStitt!

This year, Britain will spend TWICE as much on debt interest payments (£112Bn) as on defense (£57Bn). Before 2018, Britain spent more on defense than debt interest. The fiscal incontinence of the Blair-Brown-Cameron-Boris governments have been a bigger geostrategic threat…
