RT by @jburnmurdoch: Over the last three years, housebuilding in London has collapsed. Molior recorded just 2,158 private starts in the first half of 2025, around 5% of London’s (low) targets, and still falling. What is going on?

RT by @jburnmurdoch: 📽️The real story of the Tianjin summit where Putin, Xi & Modi are meeting isn't just the handshakes. It's something deeper. It's the question of whether we'll look back on the Ukraine war as the moment geopolitics as we know it changed forever. I explain, via, yes, some charts👇

R to @jburnmurdoch: I fear many progressives have convinced themselves that talking about families and children is conservative-coded. Falling birth rates are not a partisan issue.
