As my new report on NHS funding shows, Sajid Javid is wrong: we do not need to charge people to use the NHS. We just need to tax more fairly https://www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2023/01/21/as-my-new-report-on-nhs-funding-shows-sajid-javid-is-wrong-we-do-not-need-to-charge-people-to-use-the-nhs-we-just-need-to-tax-more-fairly/The headline says it all in this case
The stock market is failing according to the CBI. So why don’t we just let it go?

I posted this on Twitter this morning: https://twitter.com/RichardJMurphy/status/1942861045426516103 My point is serious. The CBI is saying that the situation with regard to the UK stock exchange is getting desperate, because it is losing out to overseas markets and not attracting sufficient business. The question that needs to be asked is, why is that?...

I'm enjoying mastodon so far but wow, all the comments about how white it is are extremely right. Almost all the other trans folks I've found have been white, and I know that isn't representative of the real world or even likely mastodon as a whole. I'd love to hear more from trans and queer POC (and POC all up, I've just been connecting with a LOT of trans folks).

Can anyone boost this to help me find more voices to listen to? Or recommend some hashtags? I don't even know how best to tag this.

Unsurprisingly, many media headlines are pushing the line that strikes will create problems for the hard-working public. They also provide column space forbosses to put their side of the dispute.

Don’t fall for this propaganda. The strikers are also members of the hard-working public, and they deserve a decent wage for their hard work.

Great review of the year in crypto and NFT - sums up why I have always said "steer clear, they are a liquidity-free scam".

173 years ago, Tennyson was on the money...

"Ring out false pride in place and blood,
   The civic slander and the spite;
   Ring in the love of truth and right,
Ring in the common love of good."

In Memoriam (Ring out, wild bells) 1850

Happy New Year!
