Excited to announce that I'm moving to Islamabad in June to become @FT 's next Pakistan correspondent. @farhanbokhari has left very big shoes to fill, but I look forward to exploring and learning about as much of the country as I can. Please get in touch with tips and ideas!

The home fee cap of £9250 for UK undergraduate tuition has been essentially frozen for a decade. With inflation soaring, Britain’s universities may become another casualty of the cost of living crisis. On WSJ’s Page 1 w/ @davidluhnow

4 years ago, as Khan won his election, I wrote about Pakistan’s checkered political history and how no PM has ever completed a full term, due to coups, corruption, and assassination. It plays out again today. @ForeignPolicy
