Welcome
Good morning and welcome to our live politics blog. I Martin Farrer with the best night stories and then it will be Krishani Dhanji with the main action.
There will be a lot of politics in the future, but we’re starting with good news: Thanks to the recent boom in batteries connected to the national power grid, we’ll save money on new transmission lines. This is despite the fact that our power use is expected to nearly double over the next decade.
Plus: With debate still ongoing over Labour’s tax changes, Domain predicts three cities where house prices will still rise regardless.
