So glad to see that the success of the coronavirus dashboard continues to reverberate.
More of this sort of thing.

A graduate earning £50k will pay a *higher* marginal rate (51%) than someone on £150K (42%)

A graduate earning £25k will pay a 40% marginal rate, just 2 points less than top earners.

It's now over two weeks since my favourite cycle lane, #C9, fully opened along its entire length from Hammersmith to Kew Bridge, so I wanted to do a quick thread about Network Effects and the politics of road space reallocation in London and elsewhere

There are reports of 30+ being able to book their boosters here. (This may vary due to a couple of things, but very much worth trying.)

Kennington's Montgomery Hall Community Centre is giving covid boosters to walk-ins. I'm there now - fast moving queue, should be less than 30mins for the whole thing.

[James Ward @JamesWard73]

a helpful reminder that, while we were (rightly) worrying about the high case rates in schools, we passed by the (gratifying) lack of spread amongst university students - helped no doubt by recent vaccination, and high levels of infection-acquired immunity.

[Paul Mainwood @PaulMainwood]

Teenager or booster-eligible but not called up through your school or GP yet?
There's some updates on the national booking system today. Take a look.

and then add in the proposed student loan increases on top of that....

[George Eaton @georgeeaton]

As the government plans to cut the student loan repayment threshold, a reminder that a graduate earning £27,295 already pays a marginal tax rate of *42.25%*. https://t.co/slXa3bt42V…

Reminder: climate change is making extreme rainfall more intense & more frequent. This will continue until greenhouse gas emissions reach ‘net-zero’. After that, it will not get better, it will just stop getting worse. The earlier we act the less bad the consequences.

Stay safe.

French bookings for vaccinations over time.
Spot the day Emmanuel Macron told the nation that if they weren't double-vaxxed, they couldn't go into a cafe.

[Brooke Jarvis @brookejarvis]

Big day for noticing how much infrastructure we've built for a world we no longer live in.

@Dunkiecan When your vaccine kicked in?

[Jim Waterson @jimwaterson]

Just tried and it’s true, our time has come, NHS vaccines seems to be now open for 32+: https://t.co/Tzyb9kgWQP

Dear media friends: you're missing a story. It's called "Further Education". It involves more than 2 million people and the economic future of the UK, as well as 'levelling up' and the state of politics in general. A thread about an @SMFthinktank essay. 1/ https://t.co/CwOv1gp6Ev
