At least I’ll be able to continue telling the young people on my cricket team that Brook isn’t a patch on Graham Gooch

Never agreed with Truss more. It’s my main motivation when I follow @LawrenceeBlack on one of the department’s whole cohort lecture courses

Was just served by a student in a shop in town. They asked me how my summer had been. I replied “brat”. There was a short period of silence but I interpreted it as them thinking “I used to think you were an out of touch man in his 40s but now I know you’re actually pretty cool”

This is a fair analysis but it is also worth pointing out that funders of academic research are supposed to remain at arm's length from government. 'Curiosity-driven' is not the sideshow, but a euphemism for what should be their main goal, supporting the best research out there.
What's the role of social science in delivering the Government's five missions? Some thoughts from me here in @ResearchProfes
