It's almost unbelievable how bad today's incomes data is - slightly worried it's going to be lost under the (understandable) virus focus. Poorer families lost 7% of their incomes over the last 2 years - hugely important and hugely grim.

My girlfriend has just told me that she only realised last month that the Elgin Marbles aren’t just giant versions of the round marbles people play with. Not sure what to make of it really.

On Covid-19. Maybe you don’t panic and you don’t relax about it either. Maybe you don’t bulk buy bog roll and maybe you don’t do the ‘it’s just like flu’ thing. Maybe you just do what the experts tell you. And wash your hands. Yours, An Asthmatic

Supermarkets have been able to cope with the demands of 60 million people every day of the year for my entire life. The system works. If you stockpile, not only are you ruining a system that means you can always get what you need when you need it, you’re a selfish twat.

Arguments for decision-making via mobs which assume that it's just this once, or that it's just on this topic, or that it's just when goodies do it, haven't quite understood how mobs work.

Being rude about the Germans is a sacred British liberty. They should reinstate the episode now and we’ll all pretend that this was only a drill.
