Donald Trump wants to know why everyone won’t just forget about the Epstein files already. As he keeps pointing out, the disgraced financier has been dead for years. But Trump himself stirred up fresh interest in a trove of documents that many hoped would reveal explosive new details. Now it looks like they won’t be released after all - and the MAGA world isn’t happy. Ed Balls and George Osborne ask: could this be the thing that finally turns Trump’s base against him?
And Andrew Bailey has sounded the alarm on banks issuing their own stablecoins. Is the UK risking being left behind on innovation in the financial services world? George doesn’t want the UK to risk falling behind, but Ed thinks George as Chancellor would have sounded a very different note on crypto.
