The Bigger Picture: Liberal Democrats - the long journey to Chesham & Amersham
The news that Sarah Green has wrested the constituency of Chesham and Amersham off the Conservatives for the first time in its history merits a look back over the Liberal Democrat's long decline. The centre ground is not an easy place to be in politics, and the new MP has needed the frequent sight of HS2 bulldozers and stormtroopers to get her majority - but she's done it. This look-back over Liberal Democrat history with Simon Rose and Mike Indian was first published in October 2019, just before the last General Election.

The Bigger Picture: What does Chesham mean and are there different Covid rules for the elite and us?
Political commentator Mike Indian ponders what the consequences of the Chesham by-election could be for the major political parties. Is it a flash in the pan or a precursor of something bigger? With Covid rules appearing to be different for the G7 leaders and UEFA officials, is there one set of rules for most of us and a different set for the elite? What does the changing leadership of the DUP mean for Northern Irish politics? And he looks at the changes in Labour's backroom team.

The Business of Film: Fast & Furious 9, Supernova & In The Earth
James Cameron-Wilson celebrates a Pandemic box office record, with Fast & Furious 9 taking over £6m in the UK over the weekend, a film he found hugely entertaining despite its preposterousness. In at #8 is Supernova, a road movie with Colin Firth and Stanley Tucci in the mould of The Father, which slipped down the charts. Outside the top ten he was impressed with the Ben Wheatley horror pic In The Earth, filmed in just 15 days in lockdown on an estate near Henley.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: Are IPOs indicating the end of the boom?
Russ Mould, Investment Director of A J Bell, wonders if new floats can help investors determine when the market might turn. He quotes John Brooks writing, "If one fact is glaringly obvious in stock market history, it is that a new issues craze is the last stage of a dangerous boom". Although a few offers ought to warn investors that if it's such a brilliant idea, why are the original investors selling, he does not feel that the UK market is getting IPO-overheated.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: The dilemma facing the Fed & Bank of England
Russ Mould, Investment Director of A J Bell, looks at the rather limited policy options facing the US Federal Reserve and, for similar reasons, the Bank of England. With federal debt mushrooming in 40 years from $1 trilion to $28 trillion and inflation showing signs of returning, what are the Fed's options? Are they right to consider the spike in inflation temporary? What if they are wrong and we return to an inflationary environment after so long with minimal interest rates?
