That last sentence is completely unsubstantiated. At the very least put 'some ministers claim'. Even that is incredibly loose. Pretty important whether it's Cooper or McFadden etc. Do 'ministers' really think that or is some adviser kiteflying. Especially with Blue Labour supposedly influential.

The Burton person is at war with the next generation down? How very novel. But I hadn't noticed Jones had taken the bonkers right wing shilling. May have to demand a refund on a book or two. And fish. Sigh.

Guardian is still good on music, film and art. But otherwise, it's got little identity, not edited strongly because it's about survival via clicks (important but still), held hostage by its lefties, its centre left are mostly knackered and its news is stale. & whoever decides on its front! Ah well.

Wee bit Shoreditch. Wee bit Dalston. Maybe Hackney Wick. But council is now screwing things up. Late is difficile.
