Opinion from the FT's Editorial Board: 'The US and European countries that tout Israel as an ally that shares their values have issued barely a word of condemnation. They should be ashamed of their silence, and stop enabling Netanyahu to act with impunity.' www.ft.com/content/f5fd...

Why not implement progressive pricing based on volume of consumption e.g. the energy gets more expensive the more you use. They do this in India and it means those who use very little pay a very low rate and those who use alot pay a higher rate. Simpler?
This is so fucked up. ICE agents in Massachusetts smashed the window of a car to grab a Guatemalan guy who was with his wife. They were waiting for their lawyer to arrive because he has a pending asylum case.

What the American people want on immigration is simple: a vast armed sweep of the country kicking out the illegals with no exceptions, except they don’t want to see it too much on the news, it can’t make them sad, impact anyone like them, or hurt anyone sympathetic.
Today, Mohsen Mahdawi, a legal resident of Vermont, walked into an immigration office to complete a final step for citizenship. Instead, he was arrested by plain-clothed, armed individuals with faces covered. This is immoral, inhumane, and illegal. He must receive due process and be released.

this is Mohsen Mahdawi, the green card holder who was just arrested by ICE for rendition at his citizenship interview
In this entire time series every large increase has immediately been followed by a decrease.
Except for 2009 followed by a small increase, and the 2024 increase, followed by yet another large increase in 2025.
The system dynamics seem to be changing.
Good list! I'm going straight to the Illiad...
Ha ha...Time and money to do an unrationed (and effective) intervention in reading for all children who are behind in Year 1 and 2. So no golden ticket, but it is possible to not have disadvantaged pupils behind, and the government should be doing it. Publishing the case study within the next month.
Absolutely. At fischerfamilyfoundation.org.uk we are running a programme to give an effective high dose, high impact intervention in reading in Year 1 and Year 2...watch this space but we think we can obliterate the disadvantage gap by Year 3...None of this is necessary.
Thanks Jo!
