Cue a number of excitable headlines before Downing Street said it did indeed intend to keep Reeves in post as chancellor for the rest of this parliament.Folk in No 10 regarded the exchanges as absurd, given how close Starmer and Reeves have been for years and how intertwined their political fates are.

They each have to hope that the markets settle down, that the cost of government borrowing falls and so the prospect of very difficult decisions recede.Once again the prime minister emphasised that the government's so-called fiscal rules – the parameters they set themselves on borrowing to appear credible – are non-negotiable.This, alongside an existing commitment to not put up taxes further, strongly suggests the government will have to spend less than it had intended to on all sorts of ideas if it continues to spend more than it had intended to on servicing the cost of borrowing.

And then, enter next, artificial intelligence, an industrial revolution whirring on countless hard drives and computer chips.The prime minister has a zeal to harness its opportunities.

You bet he has, you might think: perhaps he can get more for less from public services with whizzy computers doing things better and quicker, or so the theory goes, than human beings.

Perhaps too, as many expect, it will revolutionise the economy – as well as everything else – transforming productivity and boosting economic growth.Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Bannon attacked Bragg and New York Attorney General Letitia James, calling them "existential threats" to the Trump administration.

James was not involved in Bannon's case, but brought a lawsuit against Trump for civil fraud and won a nearly half-billion dollar judgment against him.Bannon also faced federal charges over the wall campaign after he was indicted by a federal grand jury, but the prosecution came to a halt after Trump pardoned him in the final hours of his first White House term.

Some of his co-conspirators, who did not receive pardons, were ultimately sentenced to prison.The president's pardon authority applies only to federal matters, and charges in the current case were filed by in a New York State court in September 2022.
