We don't want equity. The point of market incentives in the workplace is that what people get out is a function of what they put in. If you want compensation for women who chose the lower paying job, do it through tax and spend. Don't claim it's a matter of market function.

Another reason for scrapping the 'equal value' rule - beyond producing absurd outcomes and creating huge uncertainty - is that it leads to companies creating large HR bureaucracies to deal with it. This is pure loss for society, and we should seek to undo it.

The thing about economics is that you can refute "experts" insisting two manifestly different jobs are the same by observing that they (a) pay differently, and (b) people choose not to switch between them for higher pay despite being supposedly 'the same'

For a party that was clearly about to form government, Labour got away with less than minimal scrutiny simply because the Conservative collapse and psychodrama was more interesting to write about

“In Britain smoking is illegal to save the NHS. But you only get medical treatment if you’ve publicly declared the correct political position”

Great! Freshly imported sectarian divisions in our public services, allocating care based on a conflict 2,000 miles away. Brilliant bonkers Britain at its best.

Government by displacement activity: fixing things that actually matter is hard, so expend energy fiddling around the edges of easily implemented policy measures, regardless of impact

If you are attempting to downplay or diminish Anglo-Saxon history in England, or the relationship between the English and their predecessors, that's not decolonisation. It's the other one.

Personally I think it's outrageous that one set of tests once a decade or so can totally alter the course of a teacher's career. This is a welcome move that will let them focus on preparing students for the sort of evaluation they'll get in the real world, like their exams.

Look we might be awful at economic growth, technology, entrepreneurship, free speech, border protection, monetary economics, housebuilding, regulation and defence but if there is one thing Europe is still the best at, it's food.

Oasis clearly didn't charge enough. Higher prices would have saved a lot of people a lot of time queuing for tickets they didn't get anyway.

He's correct, but it's also worth noting that the overwhelming majority of immigration under Blair was from outside the EU - it just suited both sides to talk about A8 arrivals because it was less controversial x.com/maxtempers/sta…

The neighbour who dobbed them in should be tarred and feathered.
