FFS. Adopt policies that make running unis well an impossible task, then moan that they have to pay >£300k for mediocre VCs, grumble that this is corrosive, and think they can “balance books” by cutting senior pay a bit, and raising “productivity” 🤔 No wonder ppl like me have headed for the door.

#Facebook I think something’s wrong with your #algorithm 🤔

…concluding that estimates of impact on US consumer prices will be very significant for some time?

…and therefore very difficult to see how even a 50% actual tariff on (say) south East Asian garments will swing the balance in favour of relocating production to high labour cost USA (especially in the context of a very tough anti-immigration regime)

It’s 9am TFT time here, and citizens are already gathering to protest Tariffs by the United States. Our plain clothes Officer Penguins are attempting to maintain calm, but unfortunately we keep losing them in the crowd.

Presumably Trump’s “reciprocal” tariffs also correlate closely and inversely with international manufacturing unit labour costs at whatever the $ exchange rate was yesterday (unless you’re making semiconductors in which case even he is smart enough to spot global market power when he sees it) 🤔

Thought the #FT had high editorial standards. Really surprised this rubbish slipped through the net into print…

Except that it is should be named the Kingdom of Deheubarth #hywelddarules

Just putting this out there (btw 6hrs 38mins by public transport)

What is behind the dramatic shift in markets The sudden change in investors’ growth expectations for the three largest economies is upending many consensus trades

Excellent summary. TL:DR there’s a nutter in the White House who hasn’t a clue about economics so we don’t know where it will all end up.

My former colleague speaks out about senior management at Cardiff Uni who have “destroyed trust and good will within the university” www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

If Trump wants the EU to buy more US made cars, then he should cut 25% off their weight and surface area…

#bbcqt #questiontime Why book ex-professor and now GB News hack Matthew Goodwin? Just blowhard grandstanding which adds nothing to intelligent debate.

Are you allowed to serve the Eucharist from a teacup? 😝

Fully expecting MAGA evangelicals to replace all the lost USAID support to the global poor from their personal tithes…🤔🤔🤔🤔

Thanks to Ted Nevin (birth centenary this month) and his associates (some of whom taught me) we know a lot more about the historical development and current state of the Welsh economy. Despite this, and because of lousy policymakers, this history does not read well…🤔

Academics fear cover-up over preparations for major cuts at Cardiff University Martin Shipton Senior academics are demanding full disclosure about discussions that took place behind the scenes before plans by Cardiff University to cut around 400 jobs and close five Schools were ...

On Cardiff University closure of nursing (which is funded on contract rather than student fees) it smells of a “strategy” to transfer provision, since inconceivable Wales would reduce new nurses by 300+ pa. What is going on? Answers to @nation.cymru qus needed urgently. nation.cymru/news/academi...

This is what investing for economic growth looks like in the contemporary UK…🤔

Cardiff: University confirms plans to cut 400 jobs Vice-chancellor Wendy Larner says

Thoughts going out to (former) colleagues at Cardiff University. This looks panicky and appears both unnecessary and unlikely to restore sustainability as the uni will surely now be less attractive to students and talented researchers www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

#BBC #Newsnight put ex minister Chris Huhne up to comment on lying under oath by News Group

But needs to be a lot less bonkers if people in (rural) Wales are to leave their (mainly) fossil fuel cars at home and use the (checks notes…) currently diesel powered trains. I fully accept that this is not easy.

Ventured out on the trains for a day trip on @transportforwales.bsky.social oh dear 😥

You’d think they would be able to predict how much rolling stock they need so people are not left abandoned on the platform because the guard cannot cram any more into a two coach DMU

Q7 seems very topical 120 years on… (Discuss with reference to agricultural holdings and Harcourt’s budget of 1894?)

And were subsequently surprised that your future career choice options didn’t include piloting oil tankers into Milford Haven or managing the entrance to the Suez Canal 😝

This is a rare year when commercial “Advent Calendars” will actually be liturgically accurate!
