Keiran graduated with a physics degree wanting to teach. Fifteen empty spaces on a PGCE. Schools canceling classes for lack of teachers. Closed training buildings gathering dust. The resources exist. The students need teaching.

Treating #Brexit as history ignores our reality today. ๐Ÿ“‰
In the Sunderland Echo ๐Ÿ“ฐ, YouGov data shows Britons view Brexit as a failure by 6 to 1โ€”with 64% of Leave voters wanting closer EU ties.
There IS support to move on, but we can't pretend it's done!
#RejoinEU #UKPolitics #UKEconomy ๐Ÿ‘‡



A scanned clipping of a published letter to the editor in the Sunderland Echo on Tuesday, October 6, 2026, headlined "Consign Brexit to history". A prominent red pull-quote on the right reads: "Mr Burghart insists we cannot blame Britain's economic woes on 'a democratic vote from a decade ago'".
The letter welcomes Prime Minister Andy Burnham's comments exploring the option to rejoin the EU, while criticizing Conservative deputy leader Alex Burghart for claiming economic woes cannot be blamed on a vote from a decade ago. The author argues that the British economy still suffers today from the hardline Brexit settlement imposed by Eurosceptic extremists, and that leaders serious about growth cannot ignore self-inflicted harm that could readily be remedied.
The text details YouGov's tracker (Sept 24โ€“25), showing Britons view Brexit as a failure over a success by more than six to one (63% to 10%). It highlights that 71% of Conservatives and 64% of 2016 Leave voters now favour closer European ties, with nearly a quarter of Leave voters (24%) and 29% of Conservatives supporting rejoining outright.
Pointing out Mr Burghart's past support for pragmatic EU compromises like the Windsor Framework and Horizon Europe, the letter concludes that with 85% of Labour voters backing a return, the government has clear public mandate to consign Brexit damage to the history books

The UK government is slashing red tape to boost growth, aiming to beat a 1.1% GDP forecast with ยฃ5 billion in funds. This move lowers costs for big business; watch to see if that capital flows into new jobs or just pads corporate profit margins. ๐Ÿ“‰๐Ÿ’ผ #UKEconomy #GDP

Kaveh applied to train as a nurse. The training places existed. The hospitals needed nurses. But HM Treasury capped Health Education England's budget, and the answer was always: no funded places. A currency issuer treated as though it runs out of pounds.

Lord O'Neil commented in the FT today that the UK's bordering on strong growth deserves more comment... Well, hello, Mr. O'Neil! Grab yourself a Pantheon trial. We're talking about it. A lot.

London had 23 IPOs last year.
The US had 354.

The LSEโ€™s boss says UK money is funding growth in โ€œevery zip codeโ€ instead of every postcode.

Her fix starts with scrapping the 0.5% tax on buying UK shares. Would that actually work?

Marcus wanted to retrain as a carpenter. The workshops were empty. The jobs were advertised. The equipment sat covered in dust. Westminster said there was no money. The government issues the pound. The limit was never financial. It was political. Read his story.

Energy bills went up 4% on 1 October, taking the typical household to ยฃ1,723 a year.

Forecasters think January's cap could jump anywhere from 16% to 30%.

Might be worth bracing now!

UK bank bosses met the Chancellor, warned that a windfall tax could scare off investors, and left with no decisions.

Budget is 28 October.
Do you think they get away with it?
