For this graphic we compare the terrain of the three most expensive rail projects in the world. HS2 costs an eye watering $537mn per km despite being built on relatively flat terrain. Read Gill Plimmer, @pickardje.bsky.social and Jonathan Vincent's excellent article www.ft.com/content/3f73...

I spent the day with Curtis Yarvin and the "dissident right" at a garden party in Surrey and wrote quite a few words about it. My cover story for today’s FT Magazine on.ft.com/4ooXS4t [GIFT LINK! 🎁]

Old enough to remember last time this was promised (in 2010). Weird that doesn’t seem to be mentioned much.

This is a very good Trichet anecdote and surprises strongly on the upside

  This reminds me of my favourite Chatham House rule story 🧵 Way back in the pre-crash boom period, Gordon Brown as Chancellor hosted one of his big global investment conferences at the QEII in London. Muggins here, a junior Treasury official, had a cheap seat as one of the organisers…1/

This is very sad news. I spent a few years sitting on that newsdesk across from Andy. Friendly, funny and fiercely intelligent, though even typing that I sense he would not want me to say it. Also had the FT superpower of speaking very quietly. Rest in peace.

Just been advised gently by other half I need a different profile pic on here. Not sure how I should feel about that.

Short trip to London. If you order a pour over (freshly made filter coffee) the staff all shout “pour over!” And then again when they serve it. Would never catch on in Frankfurt.

Lovely piece! I share Katie’s nostalgia for Twitter in the early 20 teens. It’s also been interesting curing my addiction to the other place — cold turkey was easier than I thought and when I go back to look something up once in a while it feels loud and, well, bad…

This seems rare: actual feedback from Apple. (Apple Maps had mistakenly labeled two theatres in Glasgow the King’s Theatre, which was bad as I was trying to go to the correct one.)
