Did a lot of writing this year. What were my highlights? Here are six: (1) January. What should #Labour do after a humiliating election defeat? TL:DR, sort themselves out, they get taxpayers' money for this and they're a rabble: publicpolicypast.blogspot.com/2020/01/ 
(2) February. Writing for the @InstituteGC, I argued that @UKLabour only wins when it a truly broad party, including the Left but reaching out to all progressives: institute.global/tony-blair/lab…
(3) July. Me in the @TheNewEuropean... All those people going on about the 'woke' university? The day-to-day reality is a lot more workaday, and a lot more humdrum: theneweuropean.co.uk/brexit-news/gl…
(4) July again. This time in the @guardian, I argued that Dominic Cummings' ideas were just warmed-over policy tourism, nothing more than a crude load of stereotypes about other countries' 'successes': theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
(5) September. Again in the @guardian, I predicted exactly what was about to happen in Britain's universities... Since Ministers were too lazy to help, they were going to be pitched into a huge #coronavirus crisis: theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
(6) November. I wrote about #Labour's antisemitism crisis for @BritishGQ. The really sinister thing about it was all the people who stayed quiet because it was happening on their 'side', meaning that this could happen again and again: gq-magazine.co.uk/politics/artic…
So that's it really. I hope you liked it all, I hope it was enlightening, enlivening, annoying, right, wrong and all points in between. It wouldn't be worth it otherwise. /END
