Daniela Gabor @danielagabor.bsky.social · 22/07/2026it is a great scandal that OfS allows Education as an Asset Class to be derisked through the state's student loan system, with the complicity of public universities. www.ft.com/content/6c54...ft.comThe UK’s biggest university is a private companySupporters say franchised providers widen access to further education, but others doubt the real value of their ‘no frills’ courses 0153

Daniela Gabor @danielagabor.bsky.social · 25/06/2026Our unions are pushing back against a Labour politician that may try to change a status-quo that has been deeply harmful for workers - all to protect a few jobs in fossil sectors that we cannot afford to keep running because they are literally destroying the planet 24317
Daniela Gabor @danielagabor.bsky.social · 24/06/2026it was surprising to hear Unite's Sharon Graham criticize Ed Miliband's record as 'job destroying' climate activism. We hope she reconsiders, on a day where UK is under extreme heat warnings.

Daniela Gabor @danielagabor.bsky.social · 23/06/2026Tightening against an energy price shock is a crude response, that only works if it chokes the economy, and green investment with it. It shouldn't be so controversial for the ECB to accept it. 03415
