@Frencheconomics PAYE RTI is a much more meaningful economic measure of the labour market conditions. It has double the correlation with job vacancies (39%) than LFS (20%)

As England kick off their first match in 30 mins, modelling from Goldman Sachs says we’ve only got a 6% chance of winning the World Cup - below the betting markets’ expectations, with Spain top and England 5th. Are they right or is football coming home?

@trussliz Haha. He's not an economist in training or in profession so how is he going to do modelling driven research and policy formulation?

@PolitlcsUK Thankfully I'm not an official Labour MP because the party rejected me for having too much common sense but I would still like to add my name to the list: Lucas Bulsara. That's 66 now. Everyone - add your name...
