“The world has changed” says Chancellor on #bbclaurak. Yes it has - so why stick to outdated counterproductive austerity agenda & arbitrary fiscal rules? You can’t cut your way to growth. Taxes on extreme wealth of super rich would be far fairer & more effective than more cuts

@JoachimSchork interesting that folks really worry about simpsons paradox/aggregation bias especially in rcts and add loads of model complexity to avoid it- but what little meta-science we have shows its often not a big problem. Arguably more parsimonious to explore heterogeneity depending....

You know how important you are by how many offices you have. I’ll spend the morning in my faculty office and the afternoon in the dean’s suite. So, let me know when you can leave your carrel to come meet and I’ll send the location.

As another snow-spotting season draws to a close, it’s worth mentioning an important point. All the trips we do, all the gear we buy, all the fuel we need, all the sandwiches we buy to keep us going, all the sacrifices of time and effort, is done entirely at our own expense. Though we appear regularly in the media, and the results of our work are becoming well known, (and cited) only one educational or governmental institution* in Scotland has ever shown the slightest bit of interest in collaborating with us. Why is this, I wonder. Lack of funds? Lack of interest? Despite what many people think, I don’t do this for a living. It’s very much an amateur interest. In fact, none of us do it for a living. We do it for the pure love of it. This isn’t a moan, incidentally, it’s just an observation. * The National Museum of Scotland is an honourable exception. They have an exhibit dedicated to it.

Congratulations to Nihon Hidankyo, a group of survivors of the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, for winning the Nobel Peace Prize. At a time when the threat of nuclear weapons is growing – and the taboo against threatening their use is weakening – Nihon Hidankyo’s work reminds us that these weapons have a terrible human cost, and that the pursuit of a world without nuclear weapons is an essential part of making sure we leave our children a safer, more secure world. Nihon Hidankyo built a powerful movement out of personal tragedy and insists upon our common humanity.

It’s as if none of the work on sustainable economies ever happened. Starmer bangs on about “growth” but growth of what, for whom, at what cost? Not all growth is good & as scientists concluded last week “In a world of finite resources, unlimited growth is a perilous illusion”.
