A lot of people would naturally associate damp and mould with older, poorly maintained homes. But actually the way we build and retrofit can create these problems or make them worse:

Sick buildings - new builds, retrofits and the damp and mould crisis
Many people would naturally associate damp and mould with older homes. But new homes and retrofits can also be seriously impacted.

If ministers truly want to fix Britain’s water system for good, they must start putting the public interest, environmental protection and workers’ expertise at the centre of reform

We therefore support calls for socioeconomic background to become a protected characteristic.
Class discrimination is not an abstract concept. It is a lived experience. It does economic harm. And it must end.

We are not surprised by the findings of the Class Ceiling report - but we are angered by them.
Treating class as a secondary issue has allowed it to persist unchecked for generations. Class is a core inclusion issue and until it is treated as such, the arts will remain unequal and unrepresentative.

I explained here why Stogia is wrong: there's no magic money tree which means finance is more available to the private than public sector, & the constraint on investing is real resources, not the public finances: chrisdillow.substack.com/p/no-magic-m...

Folk are rightly criticizing Polanski for ignoring the fact that there are constraints on govt borrowing now (ie inflation). But fiscal conservatism can be perfectly compatible with economic radicalism, as I've said: chrisdillow.substack.com/p/some-lefti...

🥳 Good news (if you are an energy CEO) National Grid profits rose15% to £1.65 billion for the half year to Sep 30.
😥 Not so good news if you are a consumer. Energy companies made £30 bn profits last year. That is £500 on every household bill going to dividends, shares buybacks & bonuses for CEOs 💰

We need to get past the idea of these people being "radicalised" on X. The British ruling class has been racist for centuries. For a while that was suppressed by hard won anti-racist social norms. But after years of chipping away with e.g. talk of "legitimate concerns" those norms are now collapsing
A mainstream “journalist” calling for a British MP to be deported. Is it because I’m Muslim? Next time, just say it with your chest.

This could be the most common cause of damp and mould across the nation: the inability to maintain the necessary minimum temperature to avoid it, due to the cost of heating/energy.

It might be easier to start listing the things that don’t cause autism
Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.
"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."
