It’s not so important what people think when you come in… It’s much more important what people think when you leave.

The real sign British education has failed is the number of people responding to this chart with "that’s what happens when too many people go to university" HE has expanded in all of these countries, and in every one apart from UK that didn’t erode the graduate earnings premium.
Stefan Schubert@StefanFSchubert

Whereas the graduate premium has increased in most rich countries, it has plummeted in Britain since 1997. Earnings for British graduates have shrunk (next pic). ->

The only person who is a Shadow Chancellor is the person who occupies the role in His Majesty's Opposition. Other parties have spokespeople on various issues. Reform can pretend otherwise if they like, but national papers shouldn't humour them.

This idiot knows absolutely nothing. His party know absolutely nothing. They’re leaving the ECHR to lower our minimum wage, to remove regulations on the maximum working week. It’s got nothing to do with immigration, it has no effect. Absolute mugs being brainwashed by Reform.

'Minimum wage increases.' I don't know how often it has to be said before you imbeciles get it; if your business can't afford to pay a liveable wage, you don't have a viable business. You have a business reliant on subsidy.

50% of Tesco, in-store, workforce receiving UC. This subsidy costs taxpayers around £600m pa. In the meantime, the organisation publish record profits (again) of £3.1b and CEO receives nearly £10m. Registered in ROI for tax purposes. Obscene doesn't adequately cover it yet @thejeremyvine and @ianjones5news ask you to focus on those in receipt of the 'benefit'?
BladeoftheSun@BladeoftheS

Ken Murphy is Tesco’s UK CEO and the highest paid supermarket boss. He gets £9,930,000 a year, but is registered to pay tax in the Republic of Ireland. Yet today he complains about his workers wages being too high.

The math here is even crazier than the tweet suggests. $1 million a day since year zero = roughly $739 billion. So you’d need to do that 52 times over to reach $38 trillion. But the speed is the part nobody processes. The U.S. added $2.25 trillion in debt last year alone. That’s $8 billion per day. So the government borrows in a single day what this thought experiment spends in 8,000 days. Then there’s the interest. The U.S. will pay over $1 trillion just in interest on this debt in 2026. That means the cost of carrying the debt now exceeds the entire thought experiment. Every single year. And CBO projects that figure doubles to $2.14 trillion by 2036. Put differently: the interest payments alone will soon be growing faster than the debt was 10 years ago. The debt is a velocity problem now. And velocity problems don’t respond to the same politics as number problems.

If you spent $1 million per day since Jesus was born you wouldn’t even have spent $1 trillion. The U.S. national debt is $38 trillion.

I think that if you’re going to write a piece in the Times urging the government to use and boost more AI, the fact that you are paid by a major AI company should be in the first sentence, or at least first paragraph. I also think that the best scenario for AI is that it destroys millions of jobs with the prosperity, dignity and community that goes with them. The worst scenario is the destruction of the human race - a fear openly expressed by an increasing number of senior and experienced AI engineers who are leaving the industry. And somewhere in between a myriad of horrors such as yet more screen learning and screen addiction for our children. But I do see that it will make rich men even richer. And that’s the most important thing of course.
