We prove small-data global stability of the Minkowski solution to Einstein's equations in a centre-normalised outgoing null-geodesic gauge. Our scheme involves first using the $r^p$-estimates of Dafermos-Rodnianski to control certain components of the Weyl tensor which satisfy a decoupled tensorial wave equation. Having established this control, all remaining geometric quantities are controlled by transport equations, taking initial conditions at a regular central axis. This method establishes global stability for initial data which decay only weakly to flat space and can establish additional asymptotic control when the data are assumed to have more structure.
