| The claim that we send £350m a week to the EU has been at the very centre of the Leave campaign's argument - they even plastered it across the bus Boris Johnson has been travelling around the country in. But our first piece today reports that the official statistics watchdog has ruled that the claim is misleading the public.
Has the rise in identity politics led to the class struggle being forgotten? Our next piece suggests it has. James Bloodworth highlights the fact that despite university admissions seeming to have achieved gender equality, the odds of a working class woman going to university remain stacked against her. He argues that without accounting for the impact of class, liberal identity politics will give rise to another injustice.
And finally, we hear from a student whose university tried to censor a short story he wrote and published on his blog. He believes the episode is part of a wider trend of restricting free speech with the aim of creating 'safe spaces'. |
