UK Chancellor John Healey is set to deliver a speech in the West Midlands arguing that fiscal discipline and economic growth are inseparable, and that boosting regional economies will help Britain "turn a corner" despite turbulent global bond markets. Bond yields reached an 18-year high last week, pushing up government borrowing costs and prompting Healey to signal a difficult budget on 28 October. Economists expect he will need to raise taxes or cut spending to protect the £24bn in fiscal headroom left by his predecessor Rachel Reeves. In his speech, Healey plans to outline measures to ease Treasury bureaucracy and devolve more powers to local leaders to stimulate business investment and innovation. He will announce that the British Business Bank will allocate £150m to scale up businesses across northern England, offering individual investments of £5m to £15m targeting university spinouts and innovative companies. The speech also emphasises "place-based" growth beyond London and the south-east, with reference to a "No 10 North" initiative. The address comes amid several complicating factors: Jaguar Land Rover, based in the West Midlands, was expected to announce thousands of job cuts; Healey has faced pressure over defence spending timelines; and businesses are bracing for potential tax increases. Opposition figures, including Reform UK's Robert Jenrick and new shadow chancellor Andrew Griffith, criticised the speech as lacking substance.

In an opinion column published by The Guardian, writer Dave Schilling uses two recent controversies — former congressman George Santos being banned from prediction market platform Kalshi after betting on his own absence from the State of the Union, and sports commentator Bill Simmons admitting on his podcast to using his daughter's boyfriend as a proxy to place bets on FanDuel from Massachusetts — as a springboard to examine the mainstreaming of gambling in the United States. Schilling traces how a combination of mobile technology, euphemistic branding ('prediction markets,' 'daily fantasy'), and a 2018 Supreme Court ruling allowing states to set their own sports betting laws has made gambling broadly legal and culturally normalized across much of the country. He notes that platforms like Polymarket, valued at over $20 billion, allow users to wager on a wide range of outcomes and have attracted investment from figures like Donald Trump Jr. Schilling contrasts the current landscape with his own upbringing, in which his parents treated gambling as a harmful and morally suspect activity, and with America's historically puritanical attitude toward it. He argues that while regulators may punish high-profile violators, the underlying services are 'inherently built on a messy, morally compromised activity' and that no regulation will fundamentally change that. The column is written in a satirical, first-person voice.
Keywords: prediction markets, Kalshi, online gambling, CFTC, George Santos, insider trading, financial regulation
