All great points and I agree. What's different about this generation (esp in the UK where I live) is that they're becoming reasonably asset rich but they feel poor day to day. This is because they spend a lot of their income on mo

I really don't know what you're talking about. How are a few hundred Harvard graduates going to meaningfully 'suppress wages' in the UK? If anything, they'll actually increase demand for goods and services in the UK

Despite the standard HN position (Brexit Bad, Tories Bad, everything Bad) - this is a really good policy. Last year, UK net migration was up a lot ( https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/populati... ) mostl

Yes. And quite intentionally. 1. Started playing rugby again after 12 years. Good male relationships. Physical exercise. A sense of time passing and a season in the year. 2. Violin. I wanted something I could spend ten years learning. And

You think that the UKGOV Transport Secretary doesn't know about, or think about the UK motorway and A-road system? > Well if that is the issue, just close the road, no more congestion on it and I also didn't have to ask anyone,

Okay. So the campaigners sort of say this in the article but then also say nah actually we're against roads because climate change (not how climate change works). The quote is in my comment. On the subject of a 'longer tunnel'

This is an extremely stupid headline and article, in a long list of extremely stupid headlines when it comes to judicial reviews (JDs). 1. The the tunnel wasn't ruled unlawful, the decision making process was. Very big difference. 2.

I'm making the point that I, and many other people, have experienced the downside of the baseless fear-mongering around 'waking up' during surgery.
