The causes of #GroupThink are
A lack of alternative perspectives.
(Eg some Left analysis) leads to a sense that everyone thinks this way’.
Strong leaders who discourage dissent (McSweeney’s purges) make it hard to speak up.
People who ask critical questions are othered, demonised.
Definition of Groupthink from Psychology Today: Groupthink is a phenomenon that occurs when a group of well-intentioned people makes irrational or non-optimal decisions spurred by the urge to conform or the belief that dissent is impossible. The problematic or premature consensus that is characteristic of groupthink may be fueled by a particular agenda—or it may be due to group members valuing harmony and coherence above critical thought.

These two posts show I think what’s going on with net zero. Big capital can’t see the profit in heat pumps powered by renewables so there isn’t the lobbying that JCB can afford.

An orange cat is lying on a cushion half covered by a curtain. It looks a bit like he’s tucked up in a duvet

#OrangeCat
An orange cat tail pokes out from some curtains. It is clear from the bulge in the curtain fabric that the whole cat is looking out it the window

I’m of the view that London should only get more transport expenditure when the rest of the country has caught up.
A graph of per capita spending on transport by region. Region Identifiable expenditure in GBP United Kingdom £687 London £1,313 Scotland £763 North West £729 West Midlands £706 South East £628 East £599 Wales £566 North East £541 Yorkshire and The Humber £495 Northern Ireland £484 South West £429 East Midlands £368 https://www.statista.com/statistics/1134495/transport-spending-per-head-in-the-uk/

I don’t think my cat wants me to finish my packing… #caturday

Beautiful frosty walk this morning. So lucky to have green spaces on my doorstep. A daily walk in nature makes such a difference to my mental health and productivity.

Possibly my best photos from the year. Mainly because the rose is so perfect

See that big Reform blob in the East Midlands? Now go and look at government spending per head of population on pretty much any budget vertical. www.gov.uk/government/s...
The image includes the following text and a bar chart showing the comparative per capita spend by region. Expenditure per head provides a more accurate picture of regional differences, as it accounts for population size. Spend in London has historically been higher compared to other English regions partly due to the fact that for many functions it is more expensive to provide services in the capital, due to higher staff and infrastructure costs. In addition, London has historically had high capital expenditure, as it includes spend by Transport for London (TfL). Part of this spend will also benefit commuters who live outside London but who use TfL services while commuting. The lowest total spend per head was in the East Midlands at £11,603 per head followed by the South East at £11,613 (Table A.1b). Looking at current spending only, i.e. recurring spend on providing public services, such as wages and salaries and benefits (Table A.3b), the lowest spend per head was in the South East at £10,396, followed by the East and East Midlands at £10,443 and £10,617 respectively. The English regions with the highest current spend per head were London at £12,605 and the North East at £12,322.

This is the Peak District in Derbyshire, UK
A misty landscape. There’s are two trees in the foreground to the left and right. The sun is low on the horizon casting a yellow glow on misty hills.

There’s also this awkward research. Imagine having spent all that money on tutors to get your kid in, only to find they would have been better off at a comp

Happy international cat day
A black cat is lying on a sofa on her back. She has her tongue out and looks like she’s had far too much cat nip

This is good news for the #creativeindustries I think. #LisaNandy is a politician who has spent time thinking about what it’s like to live in towns and cites across the culture.
