"In the coming weeks, as politicians debate how to drive growth, I predict universities will go unmentioned. I challenge them to prove me wrong."
A must-read from @profgeraintrees , Vice-Provost of @ucl, in The Times yesterday, making the case that universities aren't just knowledge producers. They're generating high-growth companies, anchoring innovation ecosystems, and turning publicly funded research into real economic impact.
In short, they're at the heart of Britain's growth story. Politicians serious about growth need to back universities to go further and faster.
We're delighted to support UCL in continuing to champion that case where it matters most. 👇

Am aboard the Pequod ( for the 4th time I think) Moby Dick the second greatest novel ever written and a whole universe of writing to live in .. As an antidote to the flat- footed prose of the media, trailing their stale opinions behind them and the fanatical drivel of the powerful plus the smug certainties of billionaires, rich only in money, nothing beats the great masters of writing. They are our life support, our thread of humanity in a mechanical world . AI will never produce a Melville for there is no data set that could have predicted him.
