I’m already investing for my eight-year-old – it’s better than saving cash
When Jim Butcher was a youngster, he did not have any idea about savings. His parents had not taught him about it and they themselves knew nothing about things like the stock market or investing. “I think they bought me a premium bond of £10 when I was about five – then 30 years later, it was still worth the same price. If they had known about the stock market and things like that, they could have done more to teach me about financial things, such as investing.” Jim, 51, who is married to Mali...
FTSE 100 Live: Stocks to drop as Trump warns takes ‘two to tango’ on Iran peace

Millions left unclaimed as public awareness gap exposes flaws in class actions
While class actions are on the rise, limited public awareness means millions in settlement funds go unclaimed, highlighting the scepticism over who truly benefits from these legal actions, writes Maria Ward-Brennan. Despite the surge in class actions in the London High Court over the last number of years, there remains a large knowledge gap among the public, as highlighted by £3.7m sitting in an unclaimed bucket that is being rerouted to charities.

In 23 months Labour has dragged the UK economy to its knees
Reading our interview with billionaire John Caudwell, in which he says he was “misled” by Labour’s pitch for power, I’m reminded of just how unambiguous Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves were in the run-up to the 2024 election. They promised to be “the most pro-business government this country has ever seen.” Some of us were sceptical at the time, pointing out that hoping for growth was not the same as having a plan to deliver it. An awful lot has happened in the 23 months since Labour’s “trus...

Why can the Faroe Islands build faster than Britain?
The Faroe Islands has built miles of undersea tunnels for less than a third of what Britain has spent on a consultation for one, says Joe Cawley Every day, tens of thousands of vehicles crawl across the Dartford Crossing, one of the UK’s key economic arteries. Relief is on the way. Work has begun on the Lower Thames Crossing, a new tunnel several miles east of Dartford designed to ease pressure on the existing route.
