Sorry you can't afford to own a home, we had to beat China in the race to develop a better plagiarism app

Great nuanced take on what type of monitoring & evaluation techniques to apply and when.

£110 to go to Manchester, the train is so packed, you can’t move, I’m sat on the floor, it’s boiling. Broken Britain. Wonder what @CrossCountryUK profits were last year.

This is incredible… in just 30 years…

Absolutely ludicrous line of questioning by Justin Webb on #Today - "new employment policy is all about more support, don't you need more stick?"

The entire employment support system is a stick

What do we call it when a government arms its civilian supporters then helps them to kill and burn out an undesirable population, in this case a subject population of non-citizens who have no meaningful rights

I'm all for 'an honest conversation about immigration' but if all it is is 'the public don't want it' without mentioning that reducing it would be stagflationary then you're also not being honest.

As cold weather sweeps the country, it’s worth a reminder that millions still can’t afford to heat their homes or eat enough.

In May 1 in 4 low income households (2.9m) couldn’t afford to keep their homes warm in the previous 6 months

The cost of energy has gone up since.

Speaking at the launch paper for Unsung Britain, Abigail McKnight discusses the disproportionate burden of care borne by women.

Just as women in low-to-middle income families are participating in the labour market more, might caring responsibilities reverse that trend?

A new study from the London School of Economics says 50 years of tax cuts in the U.S. — which promised to “trickle down” and eventually boost jobs and income for everyone — have only helped one group: the rich.

Amazing piece by @Davrob5 following Trump's victory this week 'That which has made loneliness a “21st century epidemic” has also made Donald Trump the 47th President.' https://t.co/Qg5VLCQZTJ

A reminder that it is our modern industrial civilization’s accelerating demand for materials that drives fossil fuel consumption, ecocide & the West’s imperialist assaults on the Global South.

In 6 recent years we've consumed nearly as much as we did in the entire 20th century.

[Jason Furman @jasonfurman]

The macroeconomy is strong--high growth, low unemployment, falling inflation--the best of any advanced economy.

But there was a reluctance to present/understand how families were still not out of the deep inflation hole. And too much masked by cherrypicking/misleading stats.

[Neil McInroy @nmcinroy]

UK media is dominated by extreme centrist political commentators. They wilfully avoid the root causes and big solutions to the economic, social and climate crises. They maintain the illusion of democratic choice rather than posit real alternatives -wealth and power are happy.

no matter who wins, bombs will keep falling on Palestine, immigrants will keep being placed in concentration camps, illegal blockade of Cuba will continue, Congolese will still be exploited and forced to work in cobalt mines for Tesla electric cars and Apple mobile phones

[SILENCED Brandon @PrettyBadLefty]

He ran on making things better and normal but better just meant continuing many Trump era policies and pointing to the stock market being at record highs when people complain about the economy and normal just meant it's illegal to wear a facemask when you go to Chili's

Ah, The Left, an apparently huge bloc of potential voters with the power to swing entire elections, who must under no circumstances be listened to or appealed to or offered any policies
