It has been the honor of my life to serve as Commissioner of BLS alongside the many dedicated civil servants tasked with measuring a vast and dynamic economy. It is vital and important work and I thank them for their service to this nation.

Really gutted that a promising PhD candidate might not be able to start his PhD due to a huge funding gap. It’s a tough reminder of how financial barriers still block talent from the Global South

The UK is literally a nation of strangers. I know a miniscule fraction of you, only my friends, associates, family. The use of this term can only have racist interpretations. Strangers that are different from all the other strangers by virtue of being from somewhere else.
