British Muslims gave Ā£708 each on average over 12 months, compared to Ā£165 for the wider UK population. šŸ‘‡

If you have constructive feedback, itā€™s not rude to speak up. It's unkind to stay silent.

At the BBC we've had a whole independent review which made it very clear we shouldn't use profoundly misleading household finance analogies for the public finances. But now the Labour front bench keeps doing it. And it's not the first time: theguardian.com/commentisfree/ā€¦

We don't need to be in the same place every day to bond and excel.

110 studies, 45k people: more time working remotely predicts slightly higher satisfaction & performance ratingsā€”without relationship costs.

The motivation benefits of flexibility outweigh the isolation risks.

Really smart comment by Sadiq Khan: 'There are two types of politicians these days, those who stoke fears and those who address fears.' Be the latter.

If 55 children had been killed by foreign looking people, we would definitely be hearing about this morning from the political class. They were in fact killed by our poor housing and that needs decisive leadership and action from govt

1.3mil households are on the waiting list for a social home, but every year we lose more than we build.

It's long past time to pay teachers more.

When districts gain flexibility to raise teacher salaries, students improve in math & reading. Schools attract better teachersā€”and they put in more effort.

The quality of our children's education depends on how much we value teachers.ā€¦
