The Productivity Institute @productivity.bsky.social · 10/06/2025
With tomorrow's Spending Review looming, @instituteforgovernment.org.uk's @gilesyb.bsky.social warns the real productivity issue isn’t policy ideas, but the system’s inability to deliver. Is it just centralisation, or is govt now too complex to act? productivity.ac.uk/news/low-acc... #SpendingReview

Low accountability institutionalism: my darkest fear - The Productivity Institute
Giles Wilkes argues that the UK's productivity crisis stems less from weak ideas and more from a government unable to turn policy into action.

@miniminuteman.bsky.social No. No, it wasn't. Also, that's not...a reputable source. (Written on pavement by my university in Manchester, UK)

dogs?

The United States is the richest country in the history of the world. But who benefits from those riches? Consider: the richest 10% of Americans hold nearly 70% of the nation’s wealth – while the bottom 50% hold just 3%. See the problem?

It wasn't mentioned in the Chancellor's speech, but the Spring Statement papers contain a major suite of anti-tax avoidance proposals, probably the toughest ever introduced. Thread:

Whilst there might be *some* valid reasons for this, I bet there are many more invalid ones. This type of structural health inequality is why deprivation has multiple indices and must be a key determinant of how scarce public resources are allocated.

Really good results for those who recover following treatment. But as a Nuffield report of April 2024 showed, far lower proportion of those from poorer decile recover (42%) than those from least deprived areas (55%) www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopula...

Is this a) tender affection between two non-sibling cats or b) sheer stubborn, bloody-mindedness and a refusal to cede any space on one blanket? Happy Caturday/Saturday, everyone.

If only Louise Haigh had repeatedly kicked her partner… Or been arrested for numerous sexual assault charges Or been found to have frequently bullied her staff Then maybe she’d still be in her position.

Today is Equal Pay Day - the day when women effectively stop getting paid because of the gender pay gap. At current rates it will take 16 years to close this gap.

I cannot stress enough how much I simultaneously agree that relationships are key to Congress working and disagree that *encouraging members to sleep in their offices* is the way to achieve that end. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Opinion | I sleep in my office. The rest of Congress should, too.
Congress would work better if members of both parties lived side by side.
