@ninavars The English fans said that Mexico was a wonderful host. They had a great time despite being a tiny minority and beating their hosts.

@KeithGordon1047 @afneil Because qualification types differ. Rather than just University you need to look at all tertiary education. Scotland is at 42% and the OECD average is 48%. Data from OECD and Scot.gov.

@GuidoFawkes Modeling of long-run trade effects of Brexit: looking just at the static trade impact, average household income is estimated to be £754–£1,637 lower per year. Factoring in longer-run productivity effects pushes that to £2,519–£5,573 per year.

@often_harmless @GuidoFawkes You keep conflating published donations to political parties with gifts to individuals. They are different and that difference answers your question.

@often_harmless @GuidoFawkes Yes, his spokesman did say that. But, Daniel Greenberg's office (the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards) who supposedly gave that advice has NOT confirmed it and is also the one who opened the investigation into Harborne's gift. The Cotrell issue is separate.

@often_harmless @GuidoFawkes You just showed the data directly from the Electoral Commission. They are donations to parties that are declared and legal, to both Reform and Conservatives. The 5 million was an undeclared 'personal gift'. That is different. And hardly unfair to determine if it was also illegal

@afneil @afneil so you support fully both regulatory systems for those utilities and think they are producing good results for citizens and business in the UK? No need to answer as we know you don't, having criticized both.

@FraserNelson Devolution will have winners and losers as individual places experiment with different things. I think that competition is better than a 'one size fits all' and top down central government that think they know best.

@bornfirstkindly Your etiquette is backwards. On a steep trail, the general rule is that the uphill hiker has the right of way, and the person heading downhill should step aside and yield.

@martinvars Fugu works by orchestrating other models, then comparing against Anthropic's published benchmarks rather than testing in the same evaluation environment. Sakan clarified that the numbers for non-Fugu models are self-reported by their creators. Fugu cannot exist without US models.

@REALKLOPEK @GunnersGlobe @LAJoneser @RoKhanna More than young people, data is available if you look; renters, millennials, Gen Z, Democratic Socialists, immigrants, pro-transit. She won her own district, CD4. Precisely because parts of it are heavy with the above people. I do agree that speeding up the count.

@REALKLOPEK @GunnersGlobe @LAJoneser @RoKhanna The batches counted on June 4, 5 were almost all later-arriving mail ballots. The composition of that late pool was different in two ways that both favored Raman: It was disproportionately Democratic and skewed younger and more progressive, exactly Raman's base.

@REALKLOPEK @LAJoneser @RoKhanna Raman draws the insurgent progressive/left coalition; younger, more activist, and more renter-heavy. She's a Democratic Socialists of America member positioned to Bass's left, and her base skews toward younger voters, renters, immigrants etc. They ALWAYS vote later in California.

@REALKLOPEK @LAJoneser @RoKhanna Polls before voting had around 50% undecided. Actual voting saw all candidates (including Pratt) double their share from predicted polls due to that. Plus late-ballot drift ALWAYS favors Democratic and progressive candidates in California. #Notimpossible.

@Victoria_Spratt @theipaper Wages typically increase in the year following an inflation spike. The way the triple lock works means that the pension is increased twice for a single inflation spike but people in work only get a single pay rise.
