Huge thanks to Sam Lister, DG for Industrial Strategy at DBT, for being Hanover's latest special guest speaker. Great to hear from Sam about how the imminent industrial strategy can be both effective and future-proof, so we're not referring to it as the "previous" strategy any time soon!

Still lots of time for the dust to settle but the results of last night's Runcorn by-election proves that I was right all along. Labour MPs must reconnect with the Party's long-standing tradition of not beating up constituents in the street

Fascinating day at New Statesman Energy and Climate Conference.

Lots of violent agreement from (almost) every speaker though, and discussion of the reasons behind the success of the explicitly anti-net zero Reform UK conspicuous by its absence
