We cover two of the biggest below: the DWP’s new Pathways to Work Innovation Fund, and a shake-up of vocational education aimed at tackling youth unemployment. We also … Continued The post July WorkerTech Round-Up appeared first on Resolution Foundation

Who might benefit from the devolution revolution?

Good afternoon, This is Yael Selfin stepping in as a guest editor for this week’s TOTC, and what an exciting week in British politics to be joining you. We are now two weeks into Andy Burnham’s premiership – and while last week ended up as ‘cost of living week’, this week has been focused on some of the … Continued The post Who might benefit from the devolution revolution? appeared first on Resolution Foundation

The balance of power

Morning all, With hearts broken and hopes crushed all across England, I can promise you a mercifully football-free edition of Top of the Charts this week. Parliament may be in recess but Westminster remains restless. The incoming PM is confirmed, but there is nothing but (virtual) column-inches of media speculation about the makeup of his … Continued The post The balance of power appeared first on Resolution Foundation

The three steps needed to climb out of the UK’s fiscal hole

Dear Chancellor (whoever you are), I advised a few (nine!) Chancellors in my time in the Treasury but never before did I get to write what I think, uninhibited. Even so, Jeremy Hunt said he appreciated me “speaking truth to power with a smile”. So, as you read this unsolicited advice, I promise I’m smiling… … Continued The post The three steps needed to climb out of the UK’s fiscal hole appeared first on Resolution Foundation

Britain is doubling down, as other economies rebalance their trade.

This was first published on our Substack. Every country has a handful of things it is unusually good at selling to the rest of the world. Germany sells cars and machinery; France sells wine, aircraft and luxury goods; the UK sells financial, legal and consulting services. In other words, the sectors where they punch above … Continued The post Britain is doubling down, as other economies rebalance their trade. appeared first on Resolution Foundation

Whether or not football ‘comes home’, the Zoomers never left

This was first published on our Substack. Football isn’t really our thing, but recently, people have been telling us it’s coming home. However, being in our mid-to-late 20s, we do know that young people like us are coming home – or never left. Nearly two-thirds of people in their early 20s are now living with … Continued The post Whether or not football ‘comes home’, the Zoomers never left appeared first on Resolution Foundation

PIP isn’t working. So what would?

This was first published on our Substack. It’s not often that a Government review of a benefit received by 4 million people delivers its verdict in four words. But the interim report of the Timms Review, published this morning, said simply: “PIP is not working.” As someone who spends a lot of time immersed in disability benefits data … Continued The post PIP isn’t working.

Relight my fire? Why ‘reindustrialisation’ needs a rethink

Afternoon all, What do Take That, Dua Lipa and Little Mix all have in common? Their fans favour Reform more than other parties (according to fun More in Common polling). I guess in August we will find out whether Farage is back for good or if Binface rule(s) the world. Alongside rubbish jokes, regional inequality is flavour of the … Continued The post Relight my fire? Why ‘reindustrialisation’ needs a rethink appeared first on Resolution Foundation

Andy plays the unlucky DIP

Afternoon all, Is there such a thing as an UN-lucky DIP? The long-delayed Defence Investment Plan landed this week, creating a headache for our PM-in-waiting: Andy says he will stick with the fiscal rule that the current budget will be balanced in 29-30, and the DIP is a £2 billion hit against that rule. That, and the small matter of the effects of the Iran war, … Continued The post Andy plays the unlucky DIP appeared first on Resolution Foundation

June WorkerTech Round-Up

We write to you amidst yet another heatwave, a World Cup and a flurry of activity around Westminster. It’s safe to say a lot is going on at the minute. Over the past month, the Milburn Review released its first findings. We do a whistlestop tour below of Alan Milburn’s diagnosis of what is driving … Continued The post June WorkerTech Round-Up appeared first on Resolution Foundation

Burnham turns up and Brexit turns ten

Afternoon all, Whether it’s football or politics, the real battle now kicks off. Andy Burnham’s decisive victory at Makerfield all but guarantees a few febrile weeks, or maybe months, of political manoeuvring. Meanwhile, some of us will be staying up late tonight to see whether Scotland can secure a historic move beyond the group stages. … Continued The post Burnham turns up and Brexit turns ten appeared first on Resolution Foundation
