The Bigger Picture: Why Sunak is so obsessed with Rwanda flights, GE polling & WASPI compensation
Political commentator Mike Indian considers why Rishi Sunak is so determined to get the Rwanda deportee flights off the ground, even to the extent of claiming it is more important than being part of the ECHR. Has he simply dug himself so big a hole that he can't get out again? Mike looks at the polling for the local elections and the General Election, asking if Labour really is on course for a landslide. And he wonders whether the next government will have to pay compensation to the WASPI women, which could be a considerable sum.

The Business of Film: Kung Fu Panda 4, Godzilla x Kong – The New Empire, Mothers' Instinct & Shirley

The Business of Film: Kung Fu Panda 4, Godzilla x Kong – The New Empire, Mothers' Instinct & Shirley
James Cameron-Wilson reports box office up another 65% with Kung Fu Panda 4 #1 with over £5m. The animation is superb and the jokes were just good enough to keep James awake. #2 is Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire with £4.1m has amazing CGI and decent human performances from the likes of Rebecca Hall but James wasn't overimpressed with this, the 38th Godzilla film. He found #6 Mothers' Instinct with Jessica Chastain and Anne Hathaway to be a stylish 1960s thriller in the Patricia Highsmith mould, enjoying it so much he didn't want it to end. On Netflix, he found Shirley, with Regina King as Shirley Chisholm, fighting to become the first black woman in the US Congress a noble and nuanced history lesson, if not entirely compelling as a film.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: The consumer sector & Topps Tiles
Russell Pointon of Edison Group talks to Simon Rose about the consumer sector where the M&A activity is confirming that a lot of companies are looking cheap. Best off are those companies able to pass on inflation, such as Gregg's. While things should get better this year, the sector isn't out of the woods yet. While this week's trading update from Topps Tiles saw reduced estimates, Russell is encouraged by the minor fall in the share price. Although the environment is currently tough, the shares look cheap and should rebound sharply as things improve. There are notes on them and the consumer sector on the Edison website.

Thought for the Week: Private Equity undermining the UK’s role in global finance
The Bank of England has sounded its strongest warnings yet of the danger to financial stability from Private Equity, and the London Evening Standard simultaneously reported the serious attrition of London Stock Exchange trading activity. We explain the close connection between these, and call for a more global perspective. It's important that both Finance and Government rise to this challenge, so that the United Kingdom can continue to provide a leading role in the development of the global manifesto for which we called on 2nd January.
