1. Yes 2. No, as Thatcher sold all the council houses, as the housing market is a massive market failure 3. Yes

There’s a lot of grumbling in London about new flats being sold to Chinese investors. But you never hear from the Chinese buyers. I asked Helen Gao to travel around Beijing property fairs and learn how you sell life in Woolwich to the Chinese elites. www.londoncentric.media/p/london-pro...

How London flats are marketed in China
Chinese buyers of London homes say they feel like “chives” • Bafflement at Londoners’ love of old homes built during the “Qing dynasty” • Fascination with the enigma of the British electrician

Joan Robinson knew that economics isn't a neutral science—it’s all about power. We don't need more unthinking economists parroting econ class teachings. We need rethinkers ready to push for an economy that serves people and planet. If you agree, join the movement. ✊

The angry white OAPs are never coming to Labour anytime soon, needs to mobilise the young and liberal vote, which is the majority in this country, if they can be inspired and mobilised. Listening to youngsters they care about the environment, trans, Palestine, housing, inequality

Every player +£50m, £200m most windows. Klopp worked within the rules, and got the best out of players like Robertson, Milner, Oxade C, Wilnadun, that cost peanuts

Don’t remember Thatcher ever holding reviews before she announced anything. Admired her government, built on Hayek principles, and implemented them.

We will struggle against their superior midfield, especially Scott. Would have liked Nyoni rather than Wirtz

Selling Tyler Morton and having Gravernberch instead was a major error, as was not replacing Henderson with Rice, Anderson and probably Alex Scott. Liverpool have lost their soul.

Data: Tyler Morton’s 25/26 Performance; Liverpool’s mistake?
With Liverpool bereft of depth in midfield post the departure of Curtis Jones and a lack of a defensive-minded player, could they have kept Morton last summer?
