I mean, sure, iron levels but also that guy who repeats everything you say in every meeting but louder yet blanks you in the hallway on a daily basis, he also makes me tired

In less jest - yes, it's good if universities can help students develop skills for the labour market. However, the pointless venom of the current government about one of the few world class sectors in the British economy is tiring, enervating and just plain sad. Get a grip lads.

Unfunded research is by definition, free. It’s the funded research, that never fully covers costs and requires massive cross-subsidy, which is a major contributor to the HE funding crisis.

The takeaway:

👉 Accommodating the radical right on immigration doesn’t win back voters.
👉 It alienates the progressive base.
👉 And it raises the salience of the very issue the radical right owns.
In short: it’s electoral self-harm.

Thanks Emily
