‘Ironic’ (or something) that the country can host a Summer of Academic Freedom and Meritocracy Battle Of Ideas focused on the employment of two men, while at least 5000 academics are getting dismissed on the instructions of Chief Finance Officers

I’m old enough to remember when everybody agreed that higher education was a “market” and offering “choice” was how the universities were meant to grow on.ft.com/3WTwBue

Graphic shows % of universities undertaking various cost cutting measures, comparing spring 2024 with spring 2025. Course closures, cutting optional modules, compulsory redundancies, and department closures have all surged

As if it needs to be said - all this is having a massive negative impact on the quality of learning for the majority of uni students nationwide. It's really bad for the country. We're failing our young people. But anti uni sentiment is so rife it's not taken seriously

It's crucial to understand that what's bad about income inequality is not just that it enables elites to consume more; it enables them to *control production*. They decide how to use *our* labour and *our* resources, and shape *our* future. It is a dictatorship of the rich.

Its worth noting that in Britain, Mamdani would have thrown out of the Labour Party by a small room full LinkIn weirdos and then replaced by a former private healthcare lobbyist who would go on to lose by 5,000 votes to a Reform candidate who was a convinced sex offender.

The current CPI is 2.6% so this is a pay cut. In 2021 UCU showed a 20% real terms pay cut since 2009. We must be well over 25% by now.

The real problem isnt chatGPT, its that universities (in the UK at least) are not genuinely invested in good academic standards. They just want to get students through the program, and chatGPT actively helps them in that it can be a lifeboat for students who don't attend or engage with the material

Going through the For Some Women decision, and something I haven't seen mentioned elsewhere is that the court took it upon itself to define lesbians in a way that excludes some cis lesbians and includes some straight trans men.

Accordingly, a person with same sex orientation as a lesbian must be a female who is sexually oriented towards (or attracted to) females, and lesbians as a group are females who share the characteristic of being sexually oriented to females. This is coherent and understandable on a biological understanding of sex. On the other hand, if a GRC under section 9(1) of the GRA 2004 were to alter the meaning of sex under the EA 2010, it would mean that a trans woman (a biological male) with a GRC (so legally female) who remains sexually oriented to other females would become a same sex attracted female, in other words, a lesbian. The concept of sexual orientation towards members of a particular sex in section 12 is rendered meaningless. It would also affect the composition of the groups who share the same sexual orientation (because a trans woman with a GRC and a sexual orientation towards women would fall to be treated as a lesbian) in a similar way as described above in relation to women and girls.

There is much critique of techno-solutionism, or the idea that we can have the same things but better/more sustainable through technology, but the converse of this, a "naturalistic solutionism," that says we can have beef as long as it comes from a grass-fed cow, deserves just as much critique.

If you are familiar with the layout of London or NY, these map comparisons with the LA fires are quite the eye opener 😱

The size of the area burnt/burning in LA (in pink) superimposed on the map of New York and London (in white) for comparison and it looks massive - on London an area stretching from Hyde park to Clapham to Greenwich, or in NY covering large areas of lower Manhattan and Queens
