Big Money and The Arts

The Booker Prize Foundation has lost a £1.6 million sponsorship deal with London-based hedge fund managers, The Man Group. Despite the Foundation’s grace under pressure, this is a huge deal in the literary world. In a statement, Thomas Keneally, winner of the prize in 1982, called the chaos a ‘climactic change in over the book […]

Macron’s Start-up Nation: The cloud hanging over France

With Britain tormented by its decision to leave the European Union, France waits, anticipating Brexit’s fall-out whilst also fantasising over a society full of unicorns. Emmanuel Macron’s pledge in June 2017 to make France a ‘start-up nation’ follows the growing trend of startup creation around Europe, and the appetite to produce startup companies valued at […]

Emmanuel Macron: A Centrist Myth?

Last April, France elected their youngest leader since Napoleon, Emmanuel Macron. A year on, the President of the Republic’s popularity is waning as his approval ratings continue to fall. Some critics say Macron’s centrist platform is a fallacy and correlate his actions, perceived to be far from centrist, to be the reason why. However, the […]

Wink wink, nudge nudge- Nudge theory explained

How would you like the government telling you what you can and cannot eat? Generally speaking, we tend to be uncomfortable with governments acting as our parents, telling us what to do or trying to use the coercive arm of the state to influence our behaviour. However Richard Thaler, of recent Nobel Prize fame, argues that […]

Blinded by numbers: why economists were wrong

With the arrival of the noughties, average growth rate in emerging markets hit over 7 per cent for the first time in human history. Naturally, forecasters raced to exaggerate the implications. China was declared the next economic superpower, surpassing the US by 2050. India and Vietnam were lauded as being the centres of economic future, […]

Be an MP and live longer, says Uni research

Long hours and high pressure decisions don’t seem to have done MPs too much bad – in fact, they’re living 28 per cent longer than their constituents, according to new research involving a University of Exeter PhD student. Conducted by John Dennis from the University Medical School and Dr Tim Crayford, chief medical advisor to […]

Second thoughts: The good life

Emma Dunne – The Social Media Situation It is fair to say that everyone wants ‘The Good Life’, but many of us cannot define what it is. Is it fulfilment, happiness, or a sense of purpose? And how do we achieve it? Nowadays, much of our lives are lived online. With Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and […]

Nobel Prizes 2015: Who are Angus Deaton and the Tunisian National Dialogue Quartet?

Each year, the announcement of the Nobel Prize winners brings the remarkable achievements of a few individuals to the attention of the wider world. This year, the recipients of the prizes for Peace and Economic Sciences have made important contributions to our understanding of democracy, poverty and inequality, yet their work has remained relatively low […]

Let’s get satirical: George on a budget

Print Features Editor, Sophie Harrison, takes a satirical stance on George Osborne’s post-election Emergency Budget. Mr Osborne’s Budget on Wednesday proved he still follows the Tory mantra “we’re all in this together”. Rumour even has it the High School Musical hit can be heard daily from the Chancellor’s office. Students are widely rejoicing at a variety of pro-youth policies, such […]

As editors of student newspapers at all 24 Russell As editors of student newspapers at all 24 Russell Group universities, we stand united against the Russell Group statement which declared ‘no detriment’ or ‘safety net’ policies not to be ‘appropriate’ or ‘necessary’ for students at this time. 

Having listened to students at our universities, we are calling on the Russell Group to act compassionately and empathetically and to reconsider their stance on ‘no detriment’ politics for assessments this year. 

Students deserve to be listened to.
