I like New Year Resolutions, so here goes:

1. get my French to C1 level
2. Go to the theatre more often
3. Drink lots of good wine
4. Go to champagne and buy lots of champagne
5. Get a six pack (almost impossible)

You'll be hearing plenty more on BGE24 from me in coming days and weeks - I have a book to sell after all - but for now a little amuse bouche from the endnotes - *was* Liz Truss really outlasted by a lettuce?

It seems that for the basic stuff that it helps us do, planning, acting as sounding board etc it doesn’t need to get much better and it’s a commodity play. Some cheap Chinese player will win. And for the things so complex to matter to pay so much, it’s never going to be able to do cost-efficiently

It’s no coincidence that France went all in on building associations as part of its secularism process. Community to replace community.

Never trust dudes (and it’s always dudes) with great university degrees, telling you not to go to university

Always the way, isn't it? Graduate from top uni says other people shouldn't aspire to go to university.

The Prime Minister's target – two thirds of young people getting a degree or an apprenticeship – is the right one. Only Labour backs our young people.

If activists push a position that has limited public support and violates the law, we shouldn’t be surprised when society slaps back hard, and in fact way harder than it should. Bad activism leads to bad results.

This week’s #bundesliga newsletter is on Serhou Guirassy and why the striker’s limits are not only holding Dortmund back this season but are perhaps entirely unsurprising…
The Guirassy Dortmund thought they signed from Stuttgart never truly arrived
The striker has been absolutely fine since making the move to Dortmund. But that may not be good enough.

I think that's the biggest lesson I've had from the Social Media Commentariat Politician Journalist Era ... huge numbers of people in British public life are in fact Galaxy Class, three-masted-under-full-sail oceangoing morons.

Out of their depth in a roadside puddle.

I don’t do it myself but in my role as AE I reckon I’ve seen about 30% of reviews do it.
