Internationally, Britain is among the most pessimistic about standards of living, even compared with European counterparts
-from @Ipsos Cost of Living Monitor
According to the latest OBR forecasts, income growth in the 2020s will be the worst for any decade on record – ending just 1.4 per higher in 2030 than in 2020.

This utterly bleak line from the Resolution Foundation on living standards in their overnight Budget analysis.

"Between now (2026-27) and the end of the Parliament (2028-29), typical incomes are forecast to fall in total by £1,050 (3 per cent)."

In other words: On average we'll be getting poorer in the run-up to the next election.

What will Britons think of #Budget2026 ? Help with energy costs was a big ask, judging from the gov.uk IT woes, the £100 payments might already be cutting through. Will it be enough for the respondent who told us 'don’t expect government to help much though'?

The big decisions? Not the focus this Budget. Not that Britons can agree on whether they want decisions with a long term focus or immediate benefits. So maybe the breathing room might be enough at least for a while longer?

Increase borrowing to spend more on public services, OR, cut borrowing even if that means less spending?

Brits are split.

The terms of any deal, and the framing, will matter hugely for public support. Most Brits are ok with freedom of movement to gain access to the single market, but not if the same fom is framed as loss of control over immigration
NEW: The next EU and UK summit will take place on 20 November in Brussels, ending months of uncertainty about the event.

The two sides hope to sign three agreements:
* a food-and-drink deal to ease Brexit red tape
* a pact linking the EU and UK's emissions-trading systems, so avoiding European carbon taxes on British businesses
* a youth mobility scheme, enabling under 30s to live, work, study and travel for a time-limited period on both sides of the channel.

EU officials have also said the summit would be an occasion to discuss the future of the relationship, while stressing the UK needs to define what it wants.

One of the Burnham government's top priorities is to ensure the UK is not disadvantaged by the bloc's ‘Made in Europe’ laws that could favour EU manufacturers in strategic sectors, such as renewable energy, nuclear and electric cars - @JenniferMerode reports

Housing brought down a government in Spain. But what about the UK? I spoke to @JonnyDymond this weekend on @BBCWorldatOne about how, in Britain, housing is a 2nd tier issue, far behind cost of living, NHS. But it is more important for young people - 3rd issue impacting their vote
Frente a sus áticos, sus recortes y su servilismo a las élites, nuestro compromiso con la gente: vivienda asequible, servicios públicos y derechos sociales.

España tiene que seguir avanzando y, para eso, necesitamos que la ciudadanía amplíe nuestra fuerza en el Parlamento.

Toca r.

El 29 de noviembre vamos a hacer historia. Otra vez.

But housing is caught in the wider pessimism around what politics is able to deliver, something we've seen for a while in our @Ipsos_in_the_UK polling. V interesting and timely episode, have a listen here bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
