this is a better and more thorough examination of the @thebookseller piece than I could manage to write - go on, have a browse. Sam is wise*. (*that was *not* a LOTR joke)

@clastee I can offer a 1 year old for a cuddle, if that’s any help? Reasonable rates. Usually on a Wednesday. (Take it easy on yourself. You’re doing an amazing job of being you)

One of the first things I'm asked when I put a piece of work out is 'what is it then?' So I wrote a (short) book to answer that. If you'd like a digital copy, it's free. iBooks only, as Kindle doesn't permit fixed-layout eBooks anymore.. books.apple.com/gb/book/ambien…

International students are not migrants. They aren’t planning on settling in the U.K., the vast majority return home after their studies. They also contribute nearly £42 billion per annum to the U.K. economy. Take them out of the migration statistics, they don’t belong there.
