@British_Airways I’m in Muscat, with a confirmed DXB>LHR booking that I’ve had for months, as per this post, and your ticketing team tell me these are only for passengers who are mid transit. I have a child to get back to in the UK and this simply isn’t what your post says!

A couple of pages from Kate Bingham’s book “The Long Shot”. Note for future reference the the names of those whose prejudices and whose willingness to believe media stories attacked and undermined the public service of a woman who is a role model for women and girls in science

Looks like it's not just the corporate #realestate sector that should fear more #remotework work. This data won't suit laundry or toiletries category manufacturers either!

WFH saves employees about 70 minutes a day on average. Most (about 60 minutes) from no commute, and the rest (about 10 minutes) from less preparation in the morning. About 1/2 of this saved time goes to working more and 1/2 to leisure/tasks, so employers and employees benefit.

Interesting. Is it as simple as ‘beautiful’ building materials are less cost effective? Beauty jettisoned in favour of profitability? That said, when we do try to build to match older look and feel of buildings, it still doesn’t look quite right…
Ben Southwood@bswud

A story has emerged that buildings from the past only appear to be beautiful because of 'survivorship bias'. We have demolished the ugly old buildings and preserved the best ones, this conjecture goes. But this story is completely false worksinprogress.co/issue/against-…

New @Ipsos research shows big increase in trust in banks since 2018; reflecting activities during #covid19 pandemic but also, one suspects, continued distance from Financial Crisis. (full report - ipsos.com/en/global-trus…)

NEW 20% are favourable to @BorisJohnson - but most are not. Collapse in ratings.

Back in 2014 the UK population was projected to be closing in on 75m by 2040. Latest projections, released today, suggest we’ll have barely more than 70m people by then. This is a big change. Some will argue it’s good news. Others bad. Either way, it’s enormously consequential.

I enjoyed your opinion piece on hybrid working, @CamCavendish - do you have the attribution on the studies you mentioned in the piece, as there were no links in the article (e.g. the Cambridge study showing workers spend less time on paid work).

Reduced puzzle page in the @guardian again today. No maths quiz for kids. No train tracks or word wheel for me. Does anyone really need three sudoku? Please reinstate the other (better!) puzzle page.

@MichaelRosenYes Checked Hansard (which one of your responses helped me to). He said ‘whether people like it or not’, and was talking about diversity in size and density of population in relation to COVID tiers. Not quite what everyone has assumed and jumped on...

I enjoyed your piece on your SAC, @JamesDelingpole. I had a similar experience when I attended mine, though my prevailing memory was the terrifying ignorance of some participants to even the most basic bits of the Highway Code. We did get free tea though. You were hard done by.
