My last ever seminar at the University of Sussex, after 15 years. It’s been an incredible journey, working with wonderful colleagues and teaching so many students who I have learnt so much from. Not sure yet what the next chapter will bring but I’m positive it will be something just as fulfilling. 🙏

Musk thinks that social liberalism would be fatal to the USA’s future prosperity - referring to Norway as an apparent example! Yet Norway has: - 20% higher av income - 5 yrs higher life expectancy - 10% lower cost of living - Better healthcare - Lower poverty levels - Higher happiness levels
