Does anyone know how to calculate RHDI per capita? It seems such a contrived number. How do we work it out? How on earth do we collect the data? #politicslive @timharford.ft.com #moreorless

Some debate about how far Greenland is from the US vs Denmark on #MoreOrLess. If the distance affected who had a claim, then Canada would win - it's only 14 miles away!

Secretary of State statement to the House of Commons: 12 January 2026 DSIT Secretary of State statement after concerns over Grok AI.

Dear @timharford.ft.com . Today in @houseofcommons.parliament.uk , @lizkendall.bsky.social said that 19 million people were on X in this country and more than a quarter used it as their primary source of news. Could #moreorless look into these stats (eliminating bots etc)? www.gov.uk/government/s...

Contributing to this programme was one of the best journalistic experiences I’ve had given the exceptionally thorough background fact-checking; a real testament to the quality of #BBC and #MoreorLess.

More or Less - The Stats of the Nation - Older People, Education, Prisons and the Weather - BBC Sounds Tim Harford explores the stats on pensioners, exams, justice and climate change.

@timharford.ft.com Cracking episode of #moreorless. Superb thunderous intro to "the weather" eg climate change. As always, my head hurts after listening (will take 3 goes to understand it all) but a great start to 2026. Well done chaps. #wato www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

BBC #MoreOrLess big omission today - stating disconnect between new build completions (120k) & land reg sales (35k) wihout noting land registry lag & fact that social housing dwellings wont show up as land reg sale - NOT EMPTY.

More or Less - Numbers of the Year 2025 - BBC Sounds A plethora of interesting numbers you may not know about.

Oil is performative. Like "drill baby drill". But still has legs, even in China where demand isn't yet matched by their extraordinary renewables investment cf @hannahritchie.bsky.social #MoreOrLess @timharford.ft.com 16m45s www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...
OTOH: Xi & his EV onslaught notwithstanding.

#MoreorLess . Interesting discussion of income related taxation comparisons. No mention of taxation preferentially benefiting wealth over income. Wealth inequality not discussed. (Also comparisons including employers NI contributions).

The #BBC #MoreOrLess team did a good (IMO unbiased) evaluation of the safety claims of AVs vs human drivers, and how some of the claims may be incomplete - www.bbc.com/audio/play/p...

Well we already knew that we don’t know how many magi there were and they weren’t kings.

Rather a boring episode.
