Theresa May is telling MPs to behave themselves after a series of leaks.
The chancellor, Philip Hammond, is upset that people are breaking the first rule of private cabinet meeting club. This might be one of the most coherent views he's had in some time.
"It's easy to quote a phrase out of context" he complains. But it's hard to take some things out of context - a fact is a fact sometimes, regardless of context.
Since 2010, even life expectancy has levelled off (after steady growth over the past 100 years). Sir Michael Marmot, a professor of epidemiology and public health, says "this is highly unusual" and that "austerity could be a factor". This is one possible approach to dealing with an ageing population...
In the meantime, Theresa May has shown Justine Greening where to find some secret Magic Money from.
Michael Gove has been suspiciously quiet...
These are turbulent times and summer is coming - can Theresa May control the flow of prosecco and gossiping MPs? Will anyone else get any of her secret magic money? Where is Michael Gove, and what is he up to?
