Did #Austerity Cause #Brexit? I have received some comments on the paper that have engaged with the data, but am more than happy to stand my ground. Here is why...
Recently, Noah Carl @NuffieldCollege studied national level opinion poll time series, arguing that the lack of evidence of an uptick in post 2010 support for Leave is evidence suggesting that austerity had nothing to do with #Brexit. See his comment here osf.io/zbgt3/
So what are the problems with this approach.
1) Opinion polls do not rely on the same sampling population, so a lot of time variation that is so crucial given the tight referendum results are well within the margins of error

La #Turchia ha una crisi di debito estero e quindi 3 soluzioni
A) la soluzione #FMI: fare #austerity per frenare i consumi ed abbattere l’import e quindi correggere la bilancia commerciale per recuperare valuta estera con cui ripagare il debito. Ma pagheranno i suoi cittadini

So the part-privatisation of #probation as originally conceived is over. @benmatthewsed made the foolhardy mistake of asking for my thoughts so going to post a thread...

1/ This was a terrible idea and seemingly every academic and practitioner in probation thought so. The marketisation was meant to use a "Payment by Results" system similar to another of Grayling's Greatest Hits, The Work Programme...
2/ CRC owners would be paid under on the basis of reductions in reconviction (which ≠ reoffending, but anyway...). They started 2 pilots for this 'payment by results' approach (notably at Doncaster prison) but they had poor results and weren't really finished before TR began

Hi Richard, I'm a paediatric nurse with specialist training in critical care & with experience of advising boards on allocation of resources to maximise safety of sick kids in areas suffering access deprivation of health care services. Can we debate this issue sensibly please?
I understand that @scottishlabour needs a lot of work, but it's a shame you are unwilling to talk about this. Forgive me if i push ahead without you, but please feel free to jump in at any time.
