They're washing their hands of HE. Preparing the ground for carnage and distancing themselves from blame.

I have always argued that splitting the policy portfolios of HE and research (they used to sit together but now split to DfE/DSIT) was a big mistake. I remember asking a DSIT official 18 months ago what the crisis of HE funding meant to them. Answer was it was DfE’s problem not theirs…

‘The Government is expected to urge universities to shake up their business models to make them less reliant on foreign students’
OK, so what is the business model you’ve got in mind? Are you planning to raise tuition fees?
Plus you know research is not fully funded and is cross subsidised?

My piece on this nonsense:
'An anaesthetic associate is a medical professional but not a member of the medical profession.A physician associate, although trained in “the medical model” & practising as a medical professional is nevertheless not a medical practitioner.'

Hospital Acquired Infections of Covid-19 and other airborne viruses are killing patients. What is being done to #CleanTheAir in hospitals?

Why didn’t Amanda Pritchard fix the flawed Infection Prevention & Control guidance?
Why didn’t Wes Streeting?
COVID-19 is still killing & disabling.
Over 3M people have long Covid in the U.K. according to the NHS GP Survey.

Now that he has come back fresh in London, he is very good. I saw him in NY Sumner 23 and didn't really like his voice, but couldn't fault him in London.

Why don't countries try to mitigate sick leave costs- prevention beats cures on cost & humanity. I don't mean universal masking, I mean clean air and nudges to ill people to get better, not make others ill in eg hospitals & schools.
