I really must be I read Torrance’s article yesterday and then today I tried to read Daisley. The joy of the block button means I get to miss the majority of his analysis & “witticisms” but occasionally one gets through.

This week it was reported by an independent think tank, the High Pay Centre, (which does seem to be cross-party) that Britain suffers poverty & inequality at levels last seen in Victorian times.
What I did on my holidays…
Was realise how much I rely on the Internet. Not just for the laughs on Twitter but for the news, blogs and podcasts. You can only spend so much time lurking in pubs and coffee shops for free wifi because family time is supposed to be time with your family and it starts to looks like you are either a caffeine addict or alcoholic after a while.
