i've not read it so totally take w salt but from what you say this seems very reasonable, there's an air of 'doth protest too much' to the guy it seems... ...this is of course obscuring the real issue, which is does Nigella flick her bean to Fred Durst, or to Zizek?

quality thread that, i'd forgotten all about it. Vim negging himself to get in the mood for wanks, brilliant

basically, Vim (and do stop me if i'm being a bit bold w my necessarily broad brush strokes, Vim :D ) was painted as a Hayekian when he first came on this board, more or less (whether that was fair or otherwise is moot for the purposes of this post). from the bits of his blog i can understand...

cheers, i'll retract my NAIRU thing of course! i like the grading of evolution -> everything else, see what you're getting at. do you know of any economic models that show/explain why Latin America has been the only region to make inroads into inequality since 2000? (pink-hued Latin America, in...

you got me Vim, as usual my dilettante entry into a thread is slapped down ;) so the NAIRU consensus is a monetarist consensus?

bang on.

thanks Droid. w that in mind, i think Vim's NAIRU analogy is, w respect, inappropriate. economics seems far less rigorous to me than climatology. i take on board the point that neither are as overarching as the theory of evolution, say, but as you say yourself, Droid, water does evaporate at...

what is the % of economists who disagree w NAIRU? i know nothing about the dismal science but a quick Wiki shows that - like climate change debates - not everyone is on board w it. monetarists certainly are. (when i hear the name Milton Friedman i tend to reach for my rifle ;) ) obviously not...

wasting the bosses' coin as you go for a nice big dump is a glorious thing. cracking grading of toilet crimes from Martin there, i've done a 5 in Keele uni library bogs before now once or twice.

oof, i know a lot of cats have to live on ramen to pay-day, but that is definitely tough stuff right there.

these are amazing!! :cool: very big breakfast there.

i'm off to East Dulwich so your Peckham gen intrigues me a lot. one of the flatmates-to-be is a chef (a bloody good one at that), and he apparently likes to walk down to the markets in Brixton for his oxtail. (markets in general there are very good, as my brother lived in Brixton for years, so...

this is so incredibly true it needs restating loudly and often. back in the spring there was a Network Rail strike ballot. i'm going to quote in full two sanely bang-on-the-money letters that appeared in the Guardian around that time.

i've been kipping on the sofa at our kid's gaff in Camberwell as i search for a London pad (got one, a grand one, but can't move in to next month), and his kitchen is genuinely squalid (people say this about all shared houses w 20-somethings i'm sure, but i've seen an awful lot and his really is...

the Tories accusing RMT of political opportunism is like being lectured by Wayne Rooney on marital fidelity. deeply heartened by John and Sufi's words on this topic.

well said John.

yeah far too many champagne socialists display their true colours if you inconvenience them even a tiny bit, in my experience.
