For my most recent paper, there are Stata and R packages to calculate a suite of robustness statistics. The statistics are calculated from B bootstrap estimates of the relevant parameters, where B is the number of bootstrap samples, chosen such that (B+1)\alpha is an integer.

Ever estimated a bunch of specifications, glanced across the coefficients and said “eh, looks robust to me!” Who *hasn’t*?? Then my new working paper is for you! www.djaeger.org/research/rob.... Be the first on your block to stop eyeballing…. Bonus R and Stata packages, just ‘cause I like you.

Times argues that Labour sticking to its plans fro remigration and deportation is the only way to stave off Farage - because that's worked so well so far. There is no appeasing these people, and no point in trying and the sooner govt realises that the better. www.thetimes.com/comment/the-...

ut Ms Mahmood believes the changes are essential, both for maintaining social cohesion and limiting the burden on public services. As things stand, some 1.6 million people will be eligible for ILR status by 2030, granting them greater access to the welfare state. She also believes changing the system is the only way of seeing off the political threat from Nigel Farage. She is right on all counts.
