Hey @theifs.bsky.social. Your event on the 20 January on regional inequalities looks really good. What a pity it is in-person only in London. How about starting to tackle regional inequalities by making this event accessible to people in the regions or even holding them outside London?

Not uncommon for highly skilled and academics to struggle with this: you are recruited or hired for a job that requires travel (and holding this job is a requirement to keep your work permit) but then doing said travel will put you out of the country too long so you violate permit conditions.

This is important work - and highly relevant. Classism at elite institutions is alive and well. Having received an offer from Cambridge University last month, I find myself unable to pay for it and completely unsupported by the university, and I know that many others are in the same boat 💔

Fascinating report out today from @nyecominetti.bsky.social and @louisemurphy.bsky.social on low-to-middle income families' experience of work - many more people in these families are employed than they were in the 90s, but there's still big improvements to be made to their experience of work.

How cuts to youth clubs affected teen crime and education @theifs.bsky.social ifs.org.uk/articles/how... - did not just serve as ‘holding spaces’ - also positive activities and structured support - closures create greater societal costs than the sums saved from public spending by their closure

Teenagers affected by austerity-induced youth club closures performed 4% worse in exams at age 16 and became 14% more likely to commit crimes.

A quick heads-up to DWP wonks that a huge tranche of almost 30 research reports has been published today (presumably held back under the previous government?) covering Universal Credit, childcare, disability & pensions - lots of interesting stuff in there... www.gov.uk/search/resea...
