Immigrants: Hello, world
The Economist,, 29/06/2012, Unattributed
The Impact of Recent Immigration on London, a study by the London School of Economics (LSE) published in 2008, showed that among migrants who had arrived in the previous three years, 61pc had graduate-level qualifications, against 30pc of native Londoners, and only 7pc had no qualifications at all, against 24pc of natives. http://www.economist.com/node/21557524|
Move over, Brits
The Economist , 29/06/2012, Unattributed
Foreigners can bring risks as well as benefits to educational institutions, as Sir Howard Davies, a former director of the LSE, discovered. His university accepted GBP300,000 from the Libyan regime, awarded a PhD to Saif al-Islam Qaddafi/ http://www.economist.com/node/21557530|
Riotous behaviour
The Economist,, 29/06/2012, Unattributed
Rioting is something that London does, says Tony Travers, director of LSE London, a research centre at the LSE. There were riots in 1809, 1816, 1830, 1866, 1886, and so on. Given that the population has increased by one-and-a-half million in the past 25 years, and two-and-a-half million people in this city were born in other countries, some of which are at war with each other, it is a miracle the place is as peaceful as it is. http://www.economist.com/node/21557526|

Sunday Times apologises over Adam Ingram bribe story
The Independent (Web), 28/06/2012, Unattributed
Adam Ingram, who represented East Kilbride, Strathaven and Lesmahagow until standing down at the 2010 election, brought libel proceedings over a November 2011 Sunday Times story. His solicitor, Andrew Stephenson, told Mr Justice Eady that it referred to an internal investigation by the London School of Economics into donations it received in 2009 from a foundation of Saif Gaddafi.
Beyond Rio, green economics can give us hope
guardian.co.uk (Web), 28/06/2012, Unattributed
Natural capital accounting should mean environmental protection is seen as an investment, rather than a cost, said economist Sam Fankhauser of the London School of Economics.
PFI is the boondoggle to end them all
Telegraph (Web), 28/06/2012, Unattributed
Professor Tony Travers, of the London School of Economics, says: Britain is highly centralised and you had one small department, the Treasury, running everything. Its courtiers were the City and the big companies and they were all making large fees out of these PFI deals. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/9362658/PFI-is-the-boondoggle-to-end-them-all.html|
