As if the Telegraph is suggesting a solution come on! The paper is basically a far right lobby newsletter at the moment. Their stuff on EVs is absolutely insane. They just want to kick any public institution.

Maybe. But fundamentally you drive wage improvements through productivity improvements. Which is why the left wing hatred of automation has always blown my mind. If we can’t allow companies to earn the same with fewer staff how do you expect wages to rise?

There’s no way he goes down surely? There would be riots. Some kind of slap on the wrist at worst I’m betting.

You ain’t kidding you’re not an expert. A Director of Lived Experience is a patient voice director. It’s not a woke thing. You’ve clearly never been near a public sector role if you think there’s no drive for efficiency. Private sector is considerably more wasteful. I’ve never had to buy my...

40% staffing costs is pretty middle of the road. Less than software or teaching for example. Schools I think spend 80%. It’s only the biggest employer because it’s a single org. Other healthcare systems are split into multiple orgs.

What’s the logic in charging one arm of the govt rates to another? Some real man in suit with a PowerPoint thinking there.

Insurance no, no insurance is. Other stuff yes.

It’s the game you’ve got to play at election time. Note only Labour get asked “how will you pay for this???” Never Tories.

Yeah Palmer was anonymous vs Man Utd

As an aside, this is really interesting. The Sun are clearly batting for the Tories this election, which would mean them not backing the winner for the first time. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/28179789/rachel-reeves-labour-list-business-backers/ What do we think? Just not relevant any more...

It’s not even that it’s insufficient so much as it’s inefficient. We spend loads on supply/locum because we won’t pay properly up front, we spend loads on emergency because we cut prevention, etc. Just the fact that the Tories haven’t cut spending in say Health but outcomes have still dropped...

I think we need a lot better alongside Sheaf and a much better back line to pull it off. OnlyFans

We’ve had the pandemic as a nice Petri dish. Europe went austerity. US went spending. We can see what happened (US recovered far better including inflation) and yet people still argue about it. 2008, Covid, the war. This happens again and again but people won’t accept it because they’ve got...

The point is people changing their behaviour isn’t some amazing insight you’ve had that they don’t know. They know this. Like the “aha but then private school students will move to the state!!” Yes. We know. And the model accounts for it. Pretending that the world is full of idiots and you as...

You’d hope that once you’ve stabilised the market a bit intervention like Help to Buy could work as intended and not just adding demand to an already hot market.

There’s no benefit to a polling company to being intentionally inaccurate.

There’s no way you’re looking at a 30% fall in prices from building. You’d need to build more than the industry could manage, millions a year. Most places that liberalise planning to allow more homes instead see rents and prices either mildly deflating or staying roughly the same. The way out...

People genuinely believe they’ve thought of stuff in their spare time that analysts and data scientists haven’t don’t they?

You realise the £1.7bn extra money is after expected side effects right? It’s already taking into account some movement to state.

This is just provably false. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/election-2019-50777965.amp https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/election-2017-40123231.amp
