The chancellor has unveiled her long-awaited spending review, which sets out detailed plans for how individual government departments are funded over the next three years.  Rachel Reeves says departmental budgets will grow by an average of 2.3% a year, prioritising health, defence and infrastructure projects - but how will this be paid for? And does this make a change for working people as promised by her government?  In today's episode, political correspondent Tamara Cohen speaks to economics and data editor Ed Conway about the ambitious figures.     Producer: Emily Hulme  Editor: Philly Beaumont 

Greetings Glocal Citizens! We're picking up more momentum toward African progress sharing the stories of dynamic diasporans making impact in the reparatory justice space. On the eve of Africa Day, I attended the premier screening of Omitted, a short film exploring reparatory justice and the legacies of colonialism by Lavinya Stennett, founder of The Black Curriculum. Raised in the UK with Jamaican roots, she founded The Black Curriculum in 2019 at age 22 shortly after finishing her studies at London's School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) which included a study abroad program in New Zealand. Her learning and experience with indigenous communities in New Zealand joined with her activism as a student at SOAS are the framework for the craft of truthtelling that is at the core of The Black Curriculum. Believing in the power of education, social impact and youth social entrepreneurship, her work has been recognised globally from Vogue and GQ to the historic Freedom of the City of London Award in 2024. She also has written on social and cultural themes throughout the African diaspora for outlets including the Guardian, Black Ballad, Quartz Africa. Expanding her entrpreneurship journey, in 2024 Lavinya co-founded the Racial Impact Collective, an initiative supporting social entrepreneurs and seeking equity in the grant making world. The future is brighter with knowing that there is a generation fo social innovators with creative talents like Lavinya committed to justice for marginalized peoples.

Todavía estamos en fase de añoranza de algunos de los días más destacados de la temporada cinéfila como son aquellos en los que Cannes es el epicentro mundial de las películas y que ha dejado una 78ª edición con un palmarés muy representativo y comprometido. In Memoriam dedicado a Robert Benton y Mariano Ozores de la mano de Mary Carmen Rodríguez (también editora del podcast) y en Leer cine, la biblioteca sonora de Carlos López-Tapia, “Material world: Arena, sal, acero, cobre, petróleo y litio. Construyeron el mundo. Transformarán el futuro" de Ed Conway. Terminamos con las apuestas de Colgados de la plataforma. ¡Muchas gracias por escucharnos!

Writer and broadcaster Ed Conway discusses his book "Material World: The Six Raw Materials That Shape Modern Civilization," which explores the critical role of six raw materials — salt, iron, copper, oil, lithium and silicon— in shaping modern civilization. Then, science journalist Humberto Basilio talks about the relative stability or instability of the system of ocean currents called the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, AMOC, which is a system of ocean currents that circulates water within the Atlantic Ocean.

Mark Carney's Liberals have won the Canadian election in a remarkable turnaround for the centre-left party.    The Liberal Party was well behind in the polls just months ago.  That's before Carney replaced Justin Trudeau as leader and US President Donald Trump soured relations with Canada, becoming the defining issue of the campaign.   So did Trump just win the election for Carney - and what does it mean for future negotiations? Niall Paterson speaks to Sky's economics and data editor Ed Conway and Professor Drew Fagan, from the University of Toronto, who worked in the Canadian government for more than a decade.  Producer: Natalie Ktena Editor: Philly Beaumont 

A critical moment emerged in northern England as the UK government intervened to prevent the closure of a major steelworks, one of the last of its kind in the country. The intervention followed the discovery that blast furnaces were on the brink of shutdown due to the site's Chinese owners halting essential raw material orders. Ed Conway, Economics Editor at Sky News, and Jo Makel, Senior Reporter for BBC regional television, explain their approach to reporting the story. Also on the show, how a call by tech leaders to abolish intellectual property laws has reignited debate over copyright in the digital age. Dr Hayleigh Bosher, a legal expert from Brunel University London, outlines the implications of such proposals. And Saturday Night Live, the iconic American comedy sketch show known for launching global stars and sharp political satire, is being adapted for the UK. Journalist Caroline Frost and comedian Tamar Broadbent discuss whether the format will be a success. Presenter: Katie Razzall Producer: Lisa Jenkinson Assistant Producer: Lucy Wai

President Trump has announced a 25% tax on all car imports and car parts to the US - they're due to come on 2 April along with tariffs on many other goods in what Trump is calling "Liberation Day".   Rachel Reeves says the UK won't impose retaliatory tariffs yet, in hopes of a deal being struck between the two countries.     Niall Paterson talks to Professor David Bailey about how British car companies will be affected, and also to economics and data editor Ed Conway on the wider implications of a potential trade war for the UK economy.  Producer: Natalie Ktena  Editor: Wendy Parker

Donald Trump wants to do a deal with Ukraine which would see the United States get access to the country's mineral wealth, with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy hoping for continued American military support in return.   Kyiv estimates that about 5% of the world's "critical raw materials" are in Ukraine. It also has significant deposits of rare earth metals which are used to produce weapons, wind turbines and electronics.    In today's episode of the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson talks to Ed Conway, Sky's economics and data editor, about how valuable Ukraine's mineral wealth could be for the US.  Producer: Soila Apparicio Editor: Wendy Parker  

We often focus on companies like Tesla or ARM, but we rarely think about the materials that make their technology possible. Ed Conway is the Economics Editor for Sky News and author of Material World: A Substantial Story of Our Past and Future. Where does the battery in your phone or an electric vehicle come from? Why are materials like lithium and copper so critical to achieving net-zero? These aren't just commodities; they are the fundamental building blocks of the technologies that shape our world and our future. 

“Tariffs is the most beautiful word to me in the dictionary,” said Donald Trump during his second inauguration as US president, alongside God, religion, and love.  This weekend, Trump hopes to follow through on his threat to hit imports, starting with a 25% border tax rate on Canada and Mexico. But some worry that the protectionist trade policies, new tariffs and retaliatory measures by other nations could slow economic growth in the US, spur inflation, and trigger a trade war.   Niall is joined by Ed Conway, our economics and data editor, to unpick why Trump loves tariffs, what he hopes to achieve with them, and how likely a trade-war is.  Producer: Natalie Ktena Editor: Paul Stanworth 

Chancellor Rachel Reeves is not having the easiest time reining in the economy. Last week saw markets turn against Labour's economic strategy - with the cost of government borrowing surging and the pound dropping to its lowest value against the dollar since November 2023.     On today's Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson is joined by our economics and data editor Ed Conway to understand what is causing the UK's growth to flatline. Is it a result of "global trends" as the government would have us believe? Or are the troubled chancellor's budget rules too tight and starting to unravel?     And as the global economic landscape continues to respond to world events - including the imminent arrival of a second Donald Trump term - what can the beleaguered chancellor do to ensure the economy bounces back? Producer: Soila Apparicio Editor: Philly Beaumont 

Liz Truss - reports the Telegraph - has sent the Prime Minister a 'Cease and desist' letter threatening him with legal action for saying that she 'crashed the economy'. Her lawyers contest that the statement is 'false and defamatory' and contributed to her losing her Norfolk seat in the election. So, what is the free speech champion hoping to achieve by this legal battle? And how do we decide if she 'did' crash the economy? We chat to her ally, Mark Littlewood. Later, the Chancellor is heading to China just when rising borrowing costs are throwing the bond markets into turmoil. Is this wise? What's going on? And what's at the bottom of all the negative sentiment about the UK? We chat to Sky News economic and data editor, Ed Conway.Tickets to The News Agents Live On Stage with HSBC UK are now on sale!

In the summer of 1944, as Allied armies fought through Normandy, 44 nations gathered at a run-down hotel in New Hampshire to discuss the economic future of the world. What followed was the only ever formal attempt to reorder the international monetary system; one that seemed for a time successful until it collapsed unmourned in 1971. Together with the author Ed Conway, we look at the summit itself, the giant figures who dominated it (John Maynard Keynes and Harry Dexter White), what it concluded and why, ultimately, it failed.Produced by Jonathan Ford and Neil Collins.With Ed Conway.Produced and edited by Nick Hilton for Podot.

Sanctions on Russia were introduced two years ago shortly after the start of the country's Ukrainian invasion. The purpose? To limit the Russian war machine and starve Russian oligarchs of access to luxury items.    Our economics and data editor Ed Conway noticed that sales of British luxury vehicles to Russia had fallen away to almost nothing, yet sales to former Soviet states such as Azerbaijan and Georgia have massively increased. The suspicion was that these cars would then somehow make it into Russia, but we did not know how.   In this episode, Niall Paterson sits down with Ed to find out the process by which sanctioned luxury European cars find their way to Moscow.  Producer: Soila Apparicio Editor: Philly Beaumont Promotions producer: Jada-Kai Meosa John

Send us a textThe British government is closing in on a bailout of the Chinese owned British Steel in which taxpayers would inject £600 million pounds into the group.British Steel is one of only two manufacturers of “virgin steel” in the UK alongside Tata Steel at Port Talbot in Wales which some industry experts claim is strategically important. Tata is in more advanced talks of its own with the government over a similar bailout.The British government wants the steel mills to switch from using blast furnaces to more environmentally friendly electric arc furnaces at a cost of £1.25 billion to help achieve Britain's net zero goals. Unions warn that even if the deal is approved, 2,300 jobs would be lost, because EAF is far less labor-intensive than traditional production methods.Patrick's BooksStatistics For The Trading Floor:  https://amzn.to/3eerLA0Derivatives For The Trading Floor:  https://amzn.to/3cjsyPFCorporate Finance:  https://amzn.to/3fn3rvCSupport The ChannelPatreon Page: https://www.patreon.com/PatrickBoyleOnFinanceBuy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/patrickboyleContactVisit our website: www.onfinance.orgFollow Patrick on Twitter Here: https://twitter.com/PatrickEBoylePatrick Boyle on YouTubeUseful LinksEd Conway Blog:https://edconway.substack.com/p/does-it-really-matter-if-we-cantMaterial World by Ed Conway: https://amzn.to/3z3LORc David C Barnett Small Business and Deal Making M&A SMBI discuss buying, selling, financing and managing small and medium sized businesses...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the Show.

The UK, US and Europe have sanctioned the importation of Russian oil and gas since the start of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine.   But from 2022, European nations have spent €10bn on Russian Liquid Natural Gas (LNG), and British companies are facilitating the trade.     Our economics and data editor Ed Conway sits down with host Niall Paterson to tell the story of how an obscure company based in an office block on a quiet street in Glasgow became an accessory in Vladimir Putin's war on Ukraine. Producer: Rosie Gillott  Editor: Paul Stanworth  Promotions producer: David Chipakupaku

The Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) says there's a "conspiracy of silence" at this election; that all of the major political parties aren't being honest enough about their fiscal plans.  The thinktank says all the major parties are avoiding discussion around the black hole in their spending plans for after the election - but what else are they not talking about?   On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson is joined by economics and data editor Ed Conway to look at why topics from tax to Brexit might be missing from the campaigning.     Plus, Ed explains how exit polls, the first and most accurate early indications of who might win the general election on voting day, are put together.   Producer: Rosie Gillott Editor: Paul Stanworth Podcast promotions producer: Jada-Kai Meosa John

More people in the UK think immigration has a negative impact on society than a positive one, according to a YouGov survey for Sky News.      In the first general election since Brexit, all the major parties mention migration in their manifestos. Both the Conservatives and Labour are placing promises to tackle illegal boat crossings high on their list of promises if they get into Number 10.     So what do voters think about immigration and how could it affect these elections?  Host Niall Paterson is joined by Sky News' community correspondent, Becky Johnson, who's been speaking to voters in Swindon about their views.

(Conversation recorded on May 7th, 2024)   Show Summary:  In contrast to ‘The Great Simplification', some might call the events of the last few hundred years a ‘Great Complexification' in terms of relationships, governance, supply chains, and many other human activities. Today's conversation with economics journalist Ed Conway focuses on the six essential resources that underpin our modern economies –  sand, salt, iron, copper, oil, and lithium - and dives into the (often unseen) environmental and human costs of extracting them, as well as the surprisingly fragile global supply chains they fuel. In order to understand what possibilities – and dangers – may await us in the future, we need to understand the realities and constraints of the present, as well as the fail points of the past. What does it take to mine, refine, and transform the materials that are foundational to the world around us - which many of us now take for granted? How can we ensure the stability of global supply chains, and could we predict potential disruptions and chokepoints before they arise? If we understood the intricate web of complexity, energy, and resources that go into everything we consume, would it change our expectations for how much we need in order to live a good and fulfilling life? About Ed Conway: Ed Conway is a writer and broadcaster. He is the Economics and Data Editor of Sky News and has written for many newspapers and publications, including the New York Times, the Times of London and the New Statesman. His latest book, Material World, was an Economist and Sunday Times Book of the Year and was shortlisted for the 2023 FT Business Book of the Year Award. He has also written two other critically acclaimed and bestselling books and has won numerous awards for his journalism. He was educated at Oxford and Harvard.

Rishi Sunak has launched the Conservative's election manifesto, promising to slash taxes in a bid to revive the party's floundering campaign.     In his address at the home of the British Grand Prix, the prime minister pledged £17bn in tax cuts including lowering national insurance by 2p, scrapping it entirely for the self-employed and stopping state pensions being taxed with "triple lock plus" - which the party said would all be paid for with £12bn in cuts to the civil service and welfare.   But will it be enough to turn around the fortunes of the Conservatives?   Today on the Daily, Niall Paterson crunches the numbers with Sky's economics and data editor Ed Conway and political communications strategist Jo Tanner unpicks what the Tories are trying to do with this manifesto.

They also discuss how the UK could be importing inflation from America.  Plus, Niall talks to Russ Mould, investment director at finance firm AJ Bell, about what's happening at the fashion retailer ASOS which says it's becoming "more agile" after an 18% drop in sales.    Producer: Rosie Gillott  Assistant Producer: Iona Brunker Podcast Promotions Producer: David Chipakupaku Editor: Paul Stanworth

There are six crucial substances in human history, according to writer and broadcaster Ed Conway: sand, iron, salt, oil, copper and lithium. They took us from the Dark Ages to the present day. They build our homes and offices, power our computers and phones, and create life-saving medicines. But most of us take them completely for granted. As Sky News Economics Editor, Ed Conway has travelled the globe in search for the origins of these vital substances – from the sweltering darkness of the deepest copper mine in Europe to the eerie green pools where lithium originates – to uncover a secret world we rarely see. In June 2023 he came to Intelligence Squared to tell their story and the little-known companies that turn raw materials into products of astonishing complexity. As we wrestle with climate change, energy crises and the threat of new global conflict, Conway argues that we need a greater understanding of the substances that underpin our lives. Speaking with Conway for this episode is Intelligence Squared's Head of Head of Programming, Conor Boyle.
