Financial crisis just a blip for bankers
Financial Times, 22/02/2013, p.2, Hannah Kuchler
The financial sector has proved remarkably resilient, with wages in the City rising while other workers saw pay fall between 2008 and 2011, according to research from the London School of Economics. Inequality before the crisis was driven by high pay in the financial sector and does not look set to stop, said Brian Bell of the Centre for Economic Performance, a co-author of the report.

Painful adjustments will prove worthwhile in the long term
Financial Times, 22/02/2013, p.12, Unattributed
The medium-term growth rate of the economy depends far more on leaving resources in the innovative and productive private sector economy than on boosting short-term demand. In the short term, some of this adjustment will be painful. But as the LSE Growth Commission showed about the legacy of the 1980 reforms, the long-term benefits make it more than worthwhile.

Painful adjustments will prove worthwhile in the long term
Financial Times, 22/02/2013, p.12, Unattributed
Two interesting recent reports shed additional light on how to meet this fundamental challenge. In Investing for Prosperity, the LSE Growth Commission argues for radical institutional changes, to promote both more and more efficient public (and private) investment. The proposals are technocratic: an infrastructure strategy board, an infrastructure planning commission and an infrastructure bank. A good additional proposal is to raise compensation for those adversely affected by the projects. A crucial benefit of a better system for evaluating and implementing investments would be a vastly superior allocation of resources.

Now every essay matters at university
The Times, 22/02/2013, p.21, Greg Hurst
The switch will be watched by leading universities, several of which are looking at reforms to degree classifications. University College London is considering a similar grade average, and York, Birmingham, Warwick, Sheffield and Nottingham universities and the London School of Economics have expressed interest in new degree systems. John Raftery, a pro-vice chancellor at Oxford Brookes, said the move would give employers a fuller picture of graduates’ achievement.
Mary McIntosh Sociologist, writer and pioneer in the feminist and gay movements
The Independent, 22/02/2013, p.54, Peta Steel
On her retirement, McIntosh took up a new position, one well honed to her skills, at the Citizens Advice Bureau in Islington, North London. Her papers were donated to the London School of Economics, where many years previously she had helped to set up the UK Gay Liberation Front. She is survived by her partner of 23 years, Angela Stewart-Park.
