Andy Burnham Refuses To Say He Trusts Donald Trump

Andy Burnham Refuses To Say He Trusts Donald Trump

Prime minister Andy Burnham insisted he would not shy away from criticising Trump if it was in Britain’s national interest to do so. Andy Burnham has refused to say that he trusts Donald Trump. The new prime minister insisted he would not shy away from criticising the US president if it was in Britain’s national interest to do so. He said the two men enjoyed a “warm” phone conversation last Monday after he entered No.10 for the first time. But asked by the BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg if he thinks he can trust Trump, Burnham would not give a direct answer. He said: “I’ve had one phone call, and I always treat people as I find them. “It was a good exchange and it was a warm exchange. I am that kind of politician, I will always seek to judge people as I find them. “I’ve lived my whole life like that, and I found him to be warm on Monday, and we will continue to build a relationship.” When Kuenssberg asked a second time if he trusted …

Trump trusts Fed Chair Warsh. It matters for more than interest rates

Trump trusts Fed Chair Warsh. It matters for more than interest rates

US President Donald Trump, right, and Kevin Warsh, incoming chairman of the US Federal Reserve, during a swearing-in ceremony in the East Room of the White House in Washington, DC, US, on Friday, May 22, 2026. Al Drago | Bloomberg | Getty Images When Kevin Warsh steps to the podium Wednesday for his first news conference as chair of the Federal Reserve, he will enjoy something his predecessor Jerome Powell lacked for years: breathing room from the president. “The president trusts Warsh, so he’ll have some scope of action,” a person familiar with Trump-Fed dynamics said, speaking under condition of anonymity to describe what has been one of the most volatile relationships of this administration. The new Fed chair will attempt to use that freedom to make his case internally for far-reaching change at the Fed, people who know him and closely follow the central bank said. Warsh’s reform agenda includes moving the Fed slowly toward the lower rates Warsh has endorsed as well as reducing the institution’s multibillion-dollar balance sheet and changing how it …

Barry Diller trusts Sam Altman. But ‘trust is irrelevant’ as AGI nears, he says.

Barry Diller trusts Sam Altman. But ‘trust is irrelevant’ as AGI nears, he says.

Billionaire media mogul Barry Diller doesn’t think OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is untrustworthy, despite recent reporting to the contrary. On stage at The Wall Street Journal’s “Future of Everything” conference this week, Diller vouched for the AI exec, who has been accused by some former colleagues and board members of being manipulative and deceptive at times. Diller, who is friendly with Altman, was responding to a question about whether or not people should put their faith in Altman to ensure that artificial intelligence benefits humanity. In particular, he was asked about the theoretical form of AI known as Artificial General Intelligence, or AGI, which could one day outperform humans on any task. The media exec, a co-founder of Fox Broadcasting and chairman of IAC and Expedia Group, said that while he believes Altman is sincere in his pursuits, that’s not really the area of concern people should be focused on. Rather, it’s the unknown consequences that will result from AI. “One of the big issues with AI is it goes way beyond trust,” Diller said. …

More academy trusts £1m+ in the red, but others improve

More academy trusts £1m+ in the red, but others improve

The number of trusts over £1 million in the red has almost doubled in a year as leaders warn it is “tougher than ever” to keep pace with increased costs. Overall, eighty-three trusts running 293 academies had deficits by the end of 2024-25, Schools Week analysis has found, narrowly down on 12 months before. But seven are now saddled with seven-figure holes in their budgets, up from four a year earlier. The highest is £9.2 million. Source link

Academy trusts need more detail on white paper plans

Academy trusts need more detail on white paper plans

The last few weeks have been potentially defining ones for the academy trust sector. However, there are mixed messages emerging that are hard to resolve, placing the trust sector at an inflection point. Some could well be forgiven for thinking we’ve been here before. The new education white paper has set out the government’s commitment to an “all academy” sector. It’s not the first white paper to make this pledge. However, whilst a predictable policy for a pro-academy Conservative government, this presents as a radical leap for a Labour one once considered, at most, “agnostic” about academies. When it comes to trusts, however, three things in particular make this white paper different. The first is visionary – that trusts will be encouraged to be (in my words) community centred organisations. This is, happily, reinforced – to a degree – by something we at Forum Strategy have championed for some time: pure accountability, the notion that trusts and their end users should be collectively responsible to one another, locally, in shared endeavour. The reforms place significant …

First five NHS trusts to be placed in special recovery programme named | UK News

First five NHS trusts to be placed in special recovery programme named | UK News

Five NHS trusts with “deep-rooted challenges” will be the first to be placed in a new recovery programme, the health secretary has announced. Wes Streeting said “failure has been tolerated for too long”, and although there has been improvement across the NHS overall, some “challenged” trusts continue to struggle. The new NHS Intensive Recovery programme has identified trusts at the bottom of the NHS league tables where patients face the longest waits, there is high leadership “churn” and there are persistent financial problems. Beginning in April, these trusts will kick off the programme: • North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust • Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust • Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust • Northern Lincolnshire and Goole NHS Foundation Trust • East Kent Hospitals NHS Trust. Image: Health Secretary Wes Streeting will launch the new programme on Wednesday. Pic: PA ‘The worst services in the country’ The Department of Health and Social Care said the trusts are not failing through lack of effort but face “deep-rooted challenges”, including “structural constraints and …

More strikes ‘inevitable’ as trusts axe jobs to stay afloat

More strikes ‘inevitable’ as trusts axe jobs to stay afloat

More from this theme Recent articles Ministers have been warned tensions are growing between unions and cash-strapped trusts, amid fears of job cuts to keep schools afloat. Dozens of schools have been rocked by strike announcements this week over planned restructures dubbed “neither fair nor sustainable”. But one multi-academy trust (MAT) chief emphasised he had already exhausted other cost-saving options, with academies struggling with falling rolls. Stephen Morales, Institute of School Business Leadership chief executive, warned: “If we continue to find ourselves in a tight fiscal environment, then it is inevitable that we’re going to see more of this.  Stephen Morales “You shouldn’t be surprised to see leaders make difficult decisions, and it’s inevitable disputes with unions will emerge.” Walk out by support staff Support staff in Unison will walk out next week at the St Ralph Sherwin Catholic MAT, affecting 14 schools in the east Midlands. The union claimed trust plans will see “pay significantly reduced” and “substantial reductions across key roles”, including teaching assistants, administrative staff and chaplaincy teams. Josie Lloyd, of Unison, …
