Interesting. Turns out the income gap between the US and Europe disappears once you adjust for spending on the secondary market for restaurant reservations

You may expect a Monaco financier who dabbles in crypto to move in different circles to local councillors in the north of England Yet a hard-charging trader based 1,000 miles away has become enmeshed in Warrington council’s finances ✍🏻 w/ @JenWilliams_FT ft.com/content/acf745…
Some interesting @Ipsos data shows how some of Labour's underlying polling is actually worse than Miliband's heading into the 2015 general election. But that might not matter, considering how far the Conservatives have tanked theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
I think one of the problems with the current debate is that it suggests we need reasons and evidence to ban phones in schools when actually we need reasons and evidence to let them in. The burden of proof is all the wrong way round. substack.nomoremarking.com/p/is-there-eno…

I think Sondre has probably been doing more groundbreaking data journalism than anyone else (in the world?) for a few years now, starting with the Economist’s excess deaths model during Covid. This award is both thoroughly deserved and long overdue!

This is incredible. World Bank comparison of how much a worker making $1,000 in Soweto keeps after taxes and transport costs vs a similar worker in Vietnam. A damning indictment of both apartheid's spatial legacy and subsequent failures to expand public transport.
Pretty persuasive @jburnmurdoch evidence that growing vehicle size is not the cause of America’s uniquely bad pedestrian safety situation. ft.com/content/9c936d…
This @FT piece is the best examination of US crash deaths that I've seen in ages. The US is so bad at this: "Even after adjusting for distance driven, US fatality rates remain 2x the rich-world average." Here's a quick 🧵 to share insights (paywall). ft.com/content/9c936d…
One of the things that frustrates me about the current debate around social media/smartphones/mental health is that it's very often framed as "alarmist who wants action NOW" vs "out-of-touch critic who only cares about 'data' & wants to wait for the evidence". This is incorrect.

@natehiggins And AFAIK many, if not most, have done so in the UK already. I'm actually pretty eager for a few schools not to, so we can see if it makes any difference!

There's some amazing data hidden away in ONS's user requested data section. Last year they quietly published death data by age, deprivation decile and cause, which means we can look at age patterns in alcohol deaths by IMD, with sadly predictably grim results:

The narrower claim that smartphones should be avoided in school seems on stronger ground than the broader claim that they are principally responsible for deteriorating mental health
Can smartphone usage at school negatively affect learning and well-being? In an event study conducted by Sara Abrahamsson, who graduated from NHH/FAIR last year, she found that a smartphone ban had positive effects on mental health, bullying, and grades. openaccess.nhh.no/nhh-xmlui/bits…
