    "It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it" - Upton Sinclair.

    The Irish leaders’ debate is really quite shocking. The three leaders have a detailed grasp of complex welfare and tax issues, they are polite and courteous, they admit mistakes, they say sorry. They might even be largely honest. Why is all that possible in Ireland but not here?

    Exhibit the gazillionth for William Goldman: "nobody knows anything".

    Every Groundhog Day I’m reminded that in 1992 I was asked to sing the end credits song for the movie Groundhog Day but my my record company’s (legendary) president told me Bill Murray was a washed up has-been who would never have another hit movie & he didn’t allow me to sing it.

    And there I was thinking it was the authentic, unmediated will of the people.’

    Brexit would never have happened without the Telegraph. It fell to me, as the Sunday leader writer, to tell the story of the Sunday Telegraph's war against the EU - which goes back decades. I found an editorial calling for a referendum in 1990.

    Yes. Some people seem to think that everyone expressing an opinion must behave as if they were running for office - eg they shouldn't insult voters & should triangulate. This is wrong.

    I'm hoping there'sa prize for whoever reads the most "Remainers need to stop being so rude to 'thick' Brexiteers" tweets, always uttered in a tone of such glorious piety. I'm at around 634

    Someone asked me yesterday: is having children (in the UK) bad for the planet? In 2017, having one fewer child was reported as being the best thing you could do for the climate; ahead of avoiding driving, flying and non-plant-based food.

    I suspect this - or something like it - might be what is getting at when she calls for radical democratization

    Today is a crap day for democracy. Not because the vote was illegitimate, but because the rules aren’t the only the thing that makes democracy worthwhile. Some thoughts from a while back:

    And Charles ended up only slightly taller than the dwarf he used to employ, thanks to the latter's growth spurt in later life:

    The most interesting thing about King Charles I is that he was 5'6" tall at the start of his reign, but only 4'8" tall at the end of it.

    Private schools don't want poor kids going to Oxford for the same reason butchers don't want people to be vegetarians. I cant' believe anybody is stupid enough to think their arguments have any merit:

    THREAD (dedicated to my ex-colleagues at NBH).... What's wrong with Fran Unsworth's vision for BBC News: 1) Any editorial graphic where "original journalism" is in the bottom corner is a recipe for News becoming an announcement board for business, the monarchy and the state...

    This reminds us that you cannot understand politics without Ben Friedman: " Many countries...have experienced alternating eras of economic growth and stagnation in which their democratic values have strengthened or weakened accordingly."

    One of the very few childhood memories I have is of listening with my nan to Just A Minute during school lunch breaks. It's amazing that a man could have presented a show for all the time from my primary schooldays to near my retirement.

    One of the many problems with this policy (other than racism, illiberalism & a form of gaslighting) is that wages are a poor measure of contribution to society:

    When we joined the EU in 1973, this question was tested with a game between the 3 joiners and the 6 old members: There are good reasons why we're not having a 1 vs 27 match.

    The great Andrew Glyn always used to ask: "what's the mechanism?" This is crucial for many policy debates now. Eg how exactly would HS2 enrich the north? How exactly would your favoured Lab leadership candidate boost the party? How exactly does agglomeration work? etc
