Our first descriptive results published using new UK HMRC data linked to "ASHE" (Payroll data).

Much much more interesting stuff coming, including more linkages (Census, Migrant Workers)

Happy to have been invited back to Edinburgh to present at a "Frontiers of Macro-Labour Economics" workshop in Adam Smith's house (and actual study!).

Bit nervous about the word "Frontiers..." there, given I plan to give a talk on a paper without a clear research question or any answers.

I'm worried about what this says about Brits... or is ONS just not trying very hard?

@jburnmurdoch.bsky.social discusses the dramatic collapse in the survey response rates. The UK's response rate below 20% is bonkers. And what is Romania doing to have a rate of 93.9%?

Apologies @uolmanschool.bsky.social -- I didn't get past the Carstairs Raileay Junction today. But hoping to still visit next semester.

I was meant to present my paper "Gamling on Momentum in Contests" today at University of Liverpool, Management School-- Center for Sports Business. But I was not allowed to leave Scotland by the infamous "Carstairs Railway Junction". Gutted... Who knew that moving North meant shitty infrastructure
