So many problems come from confusion between short term and long term. For example UKs policy “eat out to help out” in short term looked like it could help the economy, but in the long term is destroying it. It’s a very basic point that could go a long way. This one was obvious.

Imagine explaining to a Martian how, on Earth, grown men kicking a ball around a pitch earn so much more than heart surgeons, let alone school teachers (both who save and improve lives). Odd.

This is insane: Let ⁦ @faizashaheen ⁩ run for MP! Strong connection to her community (not parachuted in), super smart, and dedication to issues that matter: inequality. ⁦ @LSEInequalities ⁩

I was mistreated – and that’s why hundreds of people will no longer vote Labour, they’ve told me |...

Years of work and my connection to the community have been brushed aside. But after months of being isolated and bullied, I should have known this was coming, says deselected Labour candidate Faiza...

I’m NO Putin fan, but let’s be honest: What would the United States do if Mexico, on it’s border, joined some sort of Russian and/or Chinese security alliance? ⁦ @JeffDSachs ⁩ provides wise advice: US should compromise on Nato to save Ukraine.

The US should compromise on Nato to save Ukraine

Moscow has steadfastly opposed expansion of the alliance eastward for 30 years

Got FREE Covid test today in the Netherlands, before returning to UK tomorrow. Why does testing remain a rent-seeking industry in so many countries, like the UK? It ain’t rocket science folks. Regulate Covid testing for the common good!

Labour: prepare clear rebuttal to accusation that you left public finances in tatters. A hint: banks & finance caused the crisis. Your post crisis investment (& deficit) saved capitalism, which you want to reform. Under Tories, banks got off scot-free while austerity hurt people.

What happens when you don’t vaccinate the world to stop vaccine apartheid? The virus mutates in unvaccinated regions! It ain’t rocket science! We have been warning about this in the WHO Council on the Economics of Health for All:

If there are "key" or "essential" workers in the economy, next step is to recognise "essential" part of economy that needs funding, nurturing & massive rethinking. Corollary is to understand how so much value could have been extracted by "non essential" part, and reverse that.

This is one of the most powerful speeches I have ever heard. Listen to it and over. The WHY (not the WHAT) behind protesting, rioting AND looting. And why new ownership models needed.

I really don’t get why England players took off the medals so quickly and dismissively. Bad vibe x sport. They played well throughout the tournament. Period.
