Very enjoyable. The main thing that has always stuck out to me about Round Tables is the groupthink: as Debbie notes, the vote is usually a landslide even when that makes no sense.

Definitely read Elaine Godfrey on the caucuses... especially her brutal (and hilarious) physical description of DeSantis: theatlantic.com/politics/archi…

To again state the obvious, this makes wealth inequality much worse.

A 35-year-old with less-well-off parents needs to earn around £25,000 more per year than their contemporaries with wealthy parents in order to have the same shot at buying a house.

CELEBRATION TIME: we have made 94 Episodes of Page 94! To celebrate, Helen Lewis has put together a fiendish quiz of the year, which either I or Adam Macqueen won. Anyway, it doesn't matter who won. It's not the point. Listen here: podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/pag…

'For Lamb’s agents [...] having all of their career prospects eliminated leaves them free to actually do intelligence work, without the distractions of trying to clamber up the greasy pole of political elevation.' Love this by Sophie Gilbert on Slow Horses theatlantic.com/culture/archiv…
