“The rise of protest politics is a sign of a polarised and fractured society” — @JSMilbank asks how much of a “right to protest” we really have thecritic.co.uk/a-right-to-pro…

In Britain the tip is generally 10-12% and normally included in the bill (you would have to go out of your way not to pay it). Same in most of Europe. American tipping culture is pretty confusing to rest of the world

But one of the reasons bright children don’t acquire the virtues of diligence (including, btw, many of those acing tests) is that they are not pushed or challenged at school. They are being failed and their time wasted

To clone him, of course. And make cloned Plato write MORE DIALOGUES
Seen some excitement over the location of Plato’s possible burial place in terms of digging him up and sequencing his DNA…but why?? Getting past the practicalities, what would it achieve? Are there some major outstanding questions about the life of Plato that DNA could answer?
@JSMilbank There is an element of nostalgia in right wing Anglo populism that young people generally can’t connect with.
@JSMilbank x.com/fenixwryght/st…
Anglo countries -> Young voters are more leftist/progressive than boomers. Contintental Europe -> Young voters are more polarized than boomers. More votes for both the right-wing parties and urbanite green-leftists, traditional centre-left & centre-right parties underperform.
@JSMilbank Tocqueville has a similar observation in his "Democracy in America".
@JSMilbank You've got to remember that having grown up in Fraserburgh, moving south to Aberdeen was me literally going to the big regional capital - so a very different experience from most students!
You are paid an ungodly amount of money to not have to crowdsource this
@JSMilbank Hear, hear @JSMilbank. This Northumbrian heartily agrees.
Very sad to hear of the death of Frank Field. Amongst his many other qualities, he was a great champion of trees both domestically and internationally. RIP.
Frank Field was incidentally one of the Christendom Trust interviewers who gave me my first job at Lancaster University in 1983.
RIP Frank Field. A politician in a different league to almost all others. A truly great man of our times. theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
