I mean, this is get another reason why economists are oxygen thieves.
Replying to @thomasforth @FT
There really was, still is among many economists, a broad agreement that if we educated our population and got the skills, which we did really well, the jobs for them would follow. Skills first, then jobs would just happen. That was the theory. tomforth.co.uk/humancapital/

Had a quote for a heat pump install (basically a straight swap, no additional work) for £4k after the £7.5k grant was included. About £5k of equipment and materials by my reckoning. Bit of a piss take no?

40 years of "unleashing the private sector" lmao
Councils stopped building houses...and basically nobody took their place.

Gardner missing two high tackles at the end is more mitigation than I saw for Jacobsen launching off both feet to deliver a headshot to VdF. But never let it be said that World Rugby left a boot unlicked!
As expected, Argentina's Tomás Albornoz has been issued with misconduct charges after he was seen remonstrating with the match officials following the final whistle against England.

Always irritated me as a state-school Devonian getting this from privately educated Northerners during my BA

Looooooooooooool
Yes but that's because everyone is working really quite hard. It's all anecdotes, but I don't know anyone who took two day weekends, and know very few who worked less than 8 hours a day.

ain't true that Oxbridge students are brighter. yes these are elite academic institutions; yes you will meet bright people there. but also & MORE IMPORTANTLY they are finishing schools for the British ruling class, who are not even remotely bright, never have been, never will be.

I have a long standing theory that if someone is white, Oxbridge educated and vaguely liberal or left leaning, there is a subset of opinion that struggles to truly see them as war criminals in a way they do with a Gadaffi, Assad or Putin, regardless of their records.

Just hear me out, maybe, just maybe, its a closer game if the ref gets the simple calls right? Mad I know.
Disappointing to see so much ref chat on here this morning Not saying Nic Berry was perfect; but when you lose by 19 points, you’ve lost the right to complain in my opinion

Decide to stop being wound up about rugby and get back to stripping the walls back... Immediately chisel through a lighting circuit. Day's going great.

Ahahahahahahahaha
My thoughts on Test vs Ireland ☘️ 1. Near perfection from all blacks. Just want to remind you that they were only in the camp for 4 weeks. 2. Defence was solid. Best so far. 3. Line outs are immaculate. Well done Barnsey. Need some adjustments in the scrum though. 4. Excellent performance from DMAC, JB, LJ, PADDY, De Groot, QT and Ardie. 5. Roigard’s worst game. Need to bring reserve 9 in early on these kind of days. 6. Ruben Love’s best performance. He is improving every week. Not a fan of DMAC at 10 though. 7. Special shoutout to Aumua. He looks like the real deal. 8. Discipline is a real issue. But can be fixed. They will work on it. 9. Still need to be more clinical in 2nd half. Can’t allow good teams to come back into the game 10. Luke Jacobson silencing his doubters every week now. Including myself. Let me know what you thought! #Allblacks #Ireland #Rugby #NZLvIRE 🇳🇿🇮🇪

Allowing this constant illegal (all teams, including Ireland guilty of this) rucking also leads to dangerous clear out attempts and endangers players. It'd be a mess for a while until players learned but learn they would.
One wish before the World Cup (which, to be fair, has been a wish for years) would be for refs to ping illegal jackallers more rather than talking them off the ball. Don't let them slow a ruck (and do their job) on the premise of maintaining flow... because you compromise flow.

Big caveat that today Berry wasn't allowing any legal jackling either!

Weak stuff from Farrell her as per.
Andy Farrell asked about the Luke Jacobson incident. "There were all sorts of incidents in the game you could talk about. "I'll pass on that one."

Don’t do this rugby culture of blaming losing side to hide a biased ref which WR ignores: Nic Berry needs to be removed. Using Ryan to excuse red of Luke flying in w tucked arm; just saying one-handed Tupiea is two-handed, coaching ABs at ruck while silent for Ire: that’s rigged
