Outcomes Over Targets

Britain's envy of the world. A government ran health service so good that you are more likely to die of practically any ailment if forced to rely on it rather than using healthcare in any other comparable nation. You don't need to spend much time working

What Are You Into?

Indeed, the days of asking people, “So, what do you do?” might finally be over. Maybe we’re moving a little closer to something more like, “So, what do you do outside of work? What are you into?” This is a concluding paragraph from a column riffing on the latest

Abysmal Performance Shown in Graphs on Health System Anniversary

Mainstream British media seemed more concerned with the chilling corral of children to sing 'happy birthday' to an institution with dystopian cult-ification rather than exposing why it's in need of its own urgent wellbeing intervention. As the UK taxpayer-funded, supposedly government-run health service reaches 75 years

All Cost No Benefit

Dan Andrews, State Premier for Victoria, Australia. Worth noting upfront that this is the politician that locked down his citizens for longer than anyone else nationwide. Which is saying something for a country that was almost as 'zero covid' as its crazed neighbour. Here's the news

Part-Filled Data Bar

Here's a graphical treatment I saw recently worth noting. Via [sub'n req'd] the FT's Datawatch team. It's not all that often that we present data that is not a finished 'period'. Typically we've full Years, Quarters,

If It's Good Enough for Huw

Another week, another media-based 'sex scandal' blanketing UK broadcast airwaves. You don't need to know the intricacies, let alone hold an opinion, to wonder what presentation, particularly video performing, skills could be gleaned from someone earning ten grand a week of taxpayers money for reading the

Presidential Prompt Card

Here's a link from the employer of a canny photographer in what looks like the Downing Street Rose Garden this Monday. The notelet is in the palm of visiting American President, Joe Biden. I realise that many observers would dismiss this image. On account of feeling that the
