Seriously people - look at what's happening in terms of GDP/capita (which is what ultimately matters for our living standards). This is a proper recession just being hidden by having more people - GDP/capita declined 0.7 per cent in 2023 with falls in every single quarter

In 1845, Sir George Stokes had derived the equation of motion of a viscous flow by adding Newtonian viscous terms, thereby the Navier-Stokes Equations had been brought to their final form which has been used to generate numerical solutions for fluid flow ever since.

if there’s a ‘nastiness’ to sharing factual public information, it’s only because the truth of the facts themself are nasty.
they’re literally admitting that they want politics to be done in the dark so that we, the public, can’t hold our public representatives accountable.
. @campbellclaret accuses Green Party of "nastiness" for publishing a list of MPs who did not vote for a ceasefire and says it is 'intimidating' behaviour and draws comparisons with the killings of Jo Cox and David Amess

So universities make research professors pay for their entire salary & research through grant funding, but then the university also takes a cut of your grant funding? Seems like you’d have to always apply for grants, so when do you do research? Is this why you’re all kinda grumpy

In Finland there are 3,382 homeless people.
In the UK there are over 210,000.
In Finland they take people’s tents away and give them a house.
In the UK we take their tents away.
Homelessness is a choice.
By the Government.

HOW HAS THIS NOT GONE VIRAL?
LISTEN to this. LISTEN. Just LISTEN.
Congressman Brian Mast:
“I would encourage the other side to NOT SO lightly throw around the idea of innocent Palestinian civilians….. I ask that when we look at this, about what type of exemptions should and should not exist, I would ask that it would be looked at through that lens: that..um..you know…there’s not this far stretch to say, there are very few innocent Palestinian civilians.”

Failing to hold Dominic Cummings & Boris Johnson to account: what I learned. You have to act now. After the event is after the event. You’ll be told to ‘move on’, to ‘get over it’ to ‘look forward’. This is already happening now. While people are dying.
