“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

Séamas O'Reilly: Arts funding rows hurt artists who struggle to break even "...it is hard to avoid the sense that the Government’s newfound notions of austerity will skip right past the men in suits and pass directly to the artists who rely on government funding to pursue th...

Séamas O'Reilly: The world is an objectively worse place because of tech-bro oligarchs As Zuckerberg pontificates about masculinity and traditional values, he does so in soundbites as lifeless as his former paeans to gender and racial equality
