This should be such an obvious point.
Prejudice means attributing to an individual the real or imagined average characteristics of a group.
It does not mean acknowledging that such differences exist in aggregate.
RT @Miss_Snuffy: Why are people scared of the evidence that says that in general men are more systematic and women are more empathetic?
Why can’t we say this out loud?
That doesn’t mean there won’t be exceptions to t…

@bruceonpolitics @boblister_poole @Keir_Starmer @BorisJohnson "A total shutdown is literally lethal. Loosening the restrictions as soon as possible is not just a question of freedom or of economic growth; it is a question of basic welfare."
I said so in March 2020.
Did you?

And another thing. A condition of the peace should be that Russia restores the national anthem it had between 1816 to 1830. You might find it familiar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbYDaP_zqHU

@davidfrum It speaks well of @Mike_Pence that he was so clear-sighted in the middle of the crisis, no?

RT @julianHjessop: Just updated a favourite chart with today's first estimates for euro #GDP in Q1 (and my own estimate for the UK)...
UK GDP fell further in 2020 and was initially slower to recover, partly due to #Brexit uncertainty, but has since caught up and almost certainly edged ahead in Q1.

Amen.

It's the only explanation for why we've devoted so much energy to denouncing politicians for being given birthday greetings by work colleagues whilst genuinely at work. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10764839/Keir-Starmer-flouted-Covid-lockdown-guidance-birthday-bash-TWO-cakes.html

Quite right. It would be absurd retrospectively to fine someone over what was at worst a technical infraction (in my view not even that). When did we start doing this Latin American thing of launching partisan investigations against political opponents? https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2022/04/28/keir-starmer-wont-fined-lockdown-beer-even-found-have-broken

How much better for everyone, including @Keir_Starmer & @BorisJohnson, if these rules had been guidelines rather than laws. The epidemiological impact would have been near-identical, and we’d have been spared these absurdities. (Some of us Burkeians did suggest it at the time…)
