It's Wednesday. Here's the latest
0:02
edition of City A.M. front page story on
0:05
pretty punchy warning from the Bank of
0:06
England about the extent to which uh
0:09
global hedge funds have been dipping
0:11
into the UK bond market uh in a way that
0:13
is beginning to sound some alarm bells
0:15
and could leave um our financial um
0:18
stability at risk should they decide
0:21
that they need to get out of those
0:23
positions in a hurry. So, that's quite
0:24
an interesting one. You should have a
0:25
look at that. beneath which uh on page
0:28
one is a story based on our poll of
0:30
voters in London. 60% of whom say it's
0:33
time for the mayor Sadi Khan uh to step
0:36
aside by the time of the next election
0:39
that is not run again. The mayor hasn't
0:41
ruled out having another run at city
0:43
hall but voters are clear in London that
0:46
um they give him a pretty mixed review
0:47
on his on his three stints as mayor but
0:50
they're pretty clear that he shouldn't
0:51
have a fourth run at it. my thoughts on
0:54
page two, by the way, as to who might be
0:56
a viable candidate. I'd also just point
0:58
out since it is the season, a debate uh
1:02
on page 18 today, asked the question as
1:06
to whether you should ever get drunk at
1:07
the office Christmas party. You don't
1:09
need any advice from me on that. And I
1:11
would also say that you should read, you
1:13
can find all of this online, of course,
1:15
but a really interesting piece in our
1:16
opinion pages today on why it's young
1:19
professionals who are bearing the brunt
1:21
of this budget. why about 50 grand is
1:23
now just about the worst salary you can
1:25
earn in this country. Um so have a look
1:27
at that. Otherwise, cheer up. It's
