Sounds like making difficult decisions and having big ideas may be about to make a comeback, along with social democracy, in Government. It'll be nice to move away from selfish greed, complaining everything's broken, blaming the wrong people, then applying policies that will just make things worse.

You can tell the quality of a group of protesters by whether they are willing to show their faces. I can respect people that show their faces even if I disagree with them.

After the WoW/D&D leak, here's some potential MTG Universes Beyond sets that would have me throwing money at WotC - Cosmere, Malazan Empire, Dragonlance, Ravenloft, Dark Sun, Midkemia/Kelewan, Pern, Wheel of Time, Recluce, Westeros, Broken Earth, and First Law. There are many, many more...

Two thoughts on the VAT cut for electricity. 1) Darren Jones seems to be more loyal to Starmer than to the Labour Party (or just a really sore loser). 2) I suspect those on prepayment metres will feel it more as they pay for their electricity when they use it rather than spreading the cost.

Andy Burnham's first speech as PM was quite positive. The Beeb's deconstruction of every sentence while bleating about where the money is going to come from has totally drawn all the fun out of it.

The DfE are a problem in this situation. The threat that schools will be penalised for closing to protect children (through lower attendance statistics) needs addressing. No-one wants schools closed but it is the DfE's responsibility as much as schools' to act. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

I've a feeling that WotC have reduced the likelihood of getting Mythics in Marvel Super Heroes. Maybe it's opening a play booster with two copies of Super Hero Civil War in it that has made me wonder, or perhaps having opened 11 play boosters without a single Mythic (for the first time in 5 years).

I'm no defence hawk but, given the current occupant of the White House and Russia's aggression in Ukraine, I cannot believe Labour is trying the same sleight of hand with Defence spending that Boris did with hospitals. Perhaps the senior hierarchy at the Treasury needs replacing?

Dan Wang's quote about China being a nation of engineers and the US being a nation of lawyers makes me think. The UK seems to be a nation of financiers, although if he was referring to those in power then we're also a nation of lawyers. I also begin to theorise the long term plans of Palantir.

MPs in the studio at the Beeb arguing about growth. No-one gives a crap about growth. What we care about is can we afford the things we need and ideally some (or better yet all) of the things we want to have an enjoyable life. GDP could be growing at 50% and most people could still be struggling.
