Miliband's Marxist father and the real reason he wants to drag us back to the nightmare 70s
Daily Mail, 26/09/2013, p.14, Dominic Sandbrook
At his peak in the Sixties and Seventies, Ed Miliband’s father was one of the best-known intellectuals in Britain. A political theorist at the London School of Economics, he was a devout follower of Karl Marx and an unswerving believer in revolutionary socialism. So his final resting place, just 12 yards from Marx’s own grave, could hardly be more fitting.

Austerity measures push Greek universities to point of collapse

"What we are seeing is a randomised set of cuts and job losses without any kind of focus … or meaningful review of how the state administration operates," said Professor Kevin Featherstone, who heads the London School of Economics Hellenic Observatory. "The troika is not focusing enough on structural reforms which would be growth enhancing."
