I've just read Charles Stross' rather wonderful "Accelerando" (2005), which straps the reader into a high-G sled accelerating through the Singularity and way, way beyond, right to the edge of the universe. And you can read it free online here: antipope.org/charlie/blog-s…

Susan Hall is an insipid, incompetent fifth rate candidate with all the charisma of a crisp packet. Her policies are aimed solidly at owners of old, polluting cars and Sadiq Khan hating out of towners. That the Tories thought her suitable just shows their contempt for London.

Incredible that the Garrick managed to maintain this secret rule that none of its members knew about until the Guardian reported on it

Hope that's a useful canter through what actually matters - what all of this means for workers not Westminster is where we should focus
What's missing? No discussion of labour market enforcement - and rights only mean something if they are enforced. Leaving workers to do that via employment tribunals means lower earners often can't enforce them at all. 900k/yr miss out on legally required holiday pay etc
Even the sector most affected (hospitality) has already recognised the writing is on the wall and that they need to start focusing on how to implement change in this area well rather than opposing it x.com/TorstenBell/st…
This is very welcome movement from @UKHofficial - recognising that workers should have a right to a contract that reflects their normal hours
For details of why this is the way to go, read our report out last week on why firms use these contracts. resolutionfoundation.org/publications/f…
5. 'banning zero hours contracts' becomes a right for workers to contract with guaranteed hours (reflecting how much they actually work). This is the right approach. Actual policy debate will be about how we calculate those "normal hours". Choice = over 3 or 6 months. Should be 3
4. "day one rights" is where most of the recent heated debate has been. Still not clear what Labour's proposal actually is. At some point this theoretical debate will get past the rhetoric to what really matters ie how long is a probationary period.
