It always blows my mind how much wider the partisan trust gap is for US media compared to the UK 🤯 Most British media is trusted (or distrusted) about equally by supporters of both major parties. That’s true of virtually no US media org. Deeply corrosive for US society.

The bluebells are flowering in our garden in Newnham. I’m told they are not, yet, in Bluebell Wood near Girton. Too far North?

The UK’s two main political parties both want to improve the nation’s numeracy. But what’s the evidence on the long-term returns to maths education? Our new policy briefing outlines the evidence from the CLS cohorts ➡️ bit.ly/3RQXNaM
