Please, please archive your work. Please. I’ve recently been saving lots of my essays as pdfs just so the Internet doesn’t suddenly delete them all (this happened to a whole load of blogs I wrote for The Independent years ago).

A bit of a roundabout way to show it but turns out Seymour believes in Keynesian economics after all
David Seymour has criticised spending on contractors, while analysis of his Treaty Principles Bill is expected to rack up a hefty consultants bill.
