This week has been more than a little turbulent for the PM. On the downside, there have been allegations of illegal Christmas ‘gatherings’ last year at No 10 plus he has re-introduced despair-inducing Covid-19 restrictions. On the upside, he announced the arrival of his seventh child. It is hardly surprising therefore, that Boris is looking even more dishevelled than usual. Whilst he may be able to take a few paternity days off, The Weekly has continued to condense the rest of this week's news into five quick-fire questions. Good luck!

#395 | The Weekly | COP26 Letter from Boris
Good Morning my loyal subjects, or for the more intellectual readers of The Weekly, ‘salve mi subliti’. Old Rishi headed up to Bury Market (or was that Burnley Market?!) earlier in the week to tell everyone what a marvellous job he'd done with the Autumn budget so I thought you'd appreciate a note from the real boss in his absence.
#394 | The Weekly | Pre-Budget letter from Dishi Rishi
I can’t believe that it is over a year since I last wrote to you. With the Budget coming up on Wednesday, I thought I would give you a bit of a heads-up on what is going to appear. I know I shouldn’t be telling you state secrets, but hey … what is Boris going to do about it? Fire me? I don’t think so!

As The Weekly wings its way into your inbox this morning, approximately 40,000 runners will be crossing the start line of the 2021 Virgin Money London Marathon. For the vast majority of us, this means a smug, pyjama-clad morning trying to spot the most outrageous running costumes from the comfort of our TV-room sofa. For the runners who have bravely (foolishly) signed up, there is no going back now! Participants this year include St Bride's very own Struan White who has finally run out of spurious injuries/excuses not to participate and is taking part in his first marathon for Boost Charitable Trust. To find out how he gets on, or to sponsor him for his, please efforts please click here.
