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

It’s time to scrap the triple lock

Morning all, No need to worry that the recent rash of Westminster resignations has reached the Resolution Foundation: I’m filling in for Ruth, but she will be back next week. Last time I filled in I brought you insights on AI and Manchesterism, and those stories are still very much with us. In fact, this week we’re considering a lot of slow-burning questions which could come to a head soon. Who should (and who will) capture the gains … Continued The post It’s time to scrap the triple lock app...

The latest data shows us that the UK labour market wasn’t in good shape on the eve of the Iran war

This article was initially published on our Substack. The Government has said the economy was on the right track before the Iran war, pointing to surprisingly strong GDP data for Q1 2026. The same can’t be said of the labour market. ONS stats published this morning (19 May 2026) shows a weak labour market in the … Continued The post The latest data shows us that the UK labour market wasn’t in good shape on the eve of the Iran war appeared first on Resolution Foundation

We can’t overlook education and benefits if we want to reduce the NEET rate

This article was initially published on our Substack. The Interim Report of the Milburn Review made a stark warning about a ‘lost generation’ of young people. It was backed by two sets of data the same day revealing grim milestones – ONS figures revealed that the number of 16–24-year-old NEETs (young people not in education, employment or training) has surpassed … Continued The post We can’t overlook education and benefits if we want to reduce the NEET rate appeared first on Resolution Founda...

Who’s winning the power battle between workers, automation and AI?

Afternoon all, Worried that AI is thinning our language and destroying our ability to learn? Well I have good news – not yet. It was a pleasure to host the launches for two fantastic books this week, both rich in humanity, story-telling and knowledge. Soumaya Keynes and Chad Brown have written the definitive guide to trade that … Continued The post Who’s winning the power battle between workers, automation and AI? appeared first on Resolution Foundation

Boiling Britain, booming Manchester and banning social media

Morning all, Mike here, filling in for Ruth this week. What a week it’s been – and only four days long! The hottest ever day in May, temperatures rising in the Labour party, and the not-so-cool news that the UK now has over one million 16- 24 years olds not in employment, education or training (NEETs). A disastrous milestone that underpinned the importance of Alan Milburn’s review into the crisis, which … Continued The post Boiling Britain, booming Manchester and banning social media appeared...

While you’re refreshing the results… pensions, mortgages, and the map that matters

Morning all, If you’re in the market for some pub-quiz-winning trivia, as the results roll in keep an eye on whether Labour’s defeat in the local elections is even more sizeable than the Conservative’s losses in 2019, when 1,300 seats fell out of their control, a loss of more than a quarter (27 per cent) … Continued The post While you’re refreshing the results… pensions, mortgages, and the map that matters appeared first on Resolution Foundation

Three myths about UK borrowing and growth

Three myths shape debates about government borrowing and growth. First, that the cause of our growth woes is an overbearing, miserly finance ministry. Borrowing too little has just not ranked among Britain’s recent weaknesses. Debt has doubled since the financial crisis. We now pay more to borrow than any other G7 economy. Consequently, debt interest consumes more … Continued The post Three myths about UK borrowing and growth appeared first on Resolution Foundation

Thunder over Westminster

Afternoon all, As thunder rumbles over Westminster, the battle for ideas over how to govern Britain has begun. Yuan Yang MP joined us yesterday, with Sir John Curtice and Tom McTague, to discuss a government reset – along with our own report on what it might take to lift living standards. I can safely say our panel … Continued The post Thunder over Westminster appeared first on Resolution Foundation

The UK has become more equal but ethnic minorities still earn less than their White counterparts

This article was initially published on our Substack. Following the news this week, it can feel like political realities in the UK are changing by the minute. For anyone who, like me, is finding the live feeds a little dizzying, this article steps back and thinks about how economic outcomes change over decades and generations. … Continued The post The UK has become more equal but ethnic minorities still earn less than their White counterparts appeared first on Resolution Foundation

Bread, circuses, and your pension pot

Afternoon all, Even after two thousand years, “bread and circuses” has not gone out of fashion as a political strategy. Having discovered that fixing the price of bread is not so easy, the Chancellor has taken 50p off a happy meal and £4 off a ticket to Chessington World of Adventures with her feel good … Continued The post Bread, circuses, and your pension pot appeared first on Resolution Foundation
