Who among us hasn’t skim-read a CND pamphlet and misattributed a Greenpeace quote to the Defence Select Committee because of toothache?
Have I cherry-picked? Yes. But are these just examples of a wider pattern? I think so. . And I reckon it's much more of a problem for Britain than most people do.
This is interesting. In 2018-19, the year before the pandemic, net debt was 19.2% of GDP. And what was net debt in 2022-23, the most recent year for which we have a final budget outcome? 19.2% of GDP. In the end, that third of a trillion in stimulus didn't add a dollar to debt.
For 40 years, the Los Angeles mandated that every new high-rise install a helicopter pad on the roof on the basis of fire safety. The theory? A helicopter might land on a burning building and evacuate occupants.
Australia deserves a better left populist than Max Chandler-Mather crikey.com.au/2024/03/28/max…

London has a housing crisis 🏠❌ A young couple doing the right thing and earning a decent wage shouldn’t have to scrimp and save for three decades just to afford a deposit. Find out more about our plan to fix this: britainremade.co.uk/getlondonbuild…

London isn’t building enough homes to keep up with demand. In fact, for every 10 jobs London has added in the last decade, the capital has only built three homes. How bad has it got and how do we get London building? (Thread)

cool example of dead internet cannibalizing itself: ancient spam account posts a generated image description with no image, drawing swarms of admiring text-spam bots which generate imaginary human reactions (read the replies) to an image which doesn’t actually exist

there are three control variables; investment, borrowing and taxes. the correct process is to decide on the necessary investment then choose how to fund it.
Next time there’s a recession we need a massive public works program to remove all the faded, years-old “six feet social distancing” signs that are still hanging around in various spots.

The Northeast has fought the expansion of natural gas pipelines for decades. As a result, it is the only region in America that still heats homes using (dirty and expensive) oil despite being adjacent to one of the most prolific nat gas fields in the world.

@dalibali2 doing many deals =/= being good at doing deals they are savvy though, for their own comp packages. shareholders, not so much never media (aside from goog/fb, maybe nflx, but i have never been sure that one makes sense for me)
