65. Can innovation transform the public sector?

Many parts of the private sector are being changed dramatically by digital technology. If you want to buy a house you can now visit a range of properties on line and see their floor plans and their inside and outside appearance from your home computer. If you want to buy any good or service you can google it and see a list of competing offers, usually with prices. You can order on line from your armchair. If you want to find a new job there are electronic jobs boards with choices of openings on offer. You can bank online, insure your car on line, undertake a study course on line. The opportunities are endless. The role and nature of the estate agent, the insurance broker, the bank clerk and the employment agency have altered substantially.

71. Comment | Conservative Home

Gabriel H. Sahlgren was a Visiting Research Fellow at the Institute of Economic Affairs and is the author of Schooling for Money: Swedish Education Reform and the Role of the Profit Motive.In a fresh blow to the coalition’s free school programme, Nick Clegg has pledged that for-profit schools shall remain banned. This is unfortunate and does not make sense. By displaying continuing hostility towards profit-making schools, his ideological convictions are at odds with his progressive goals: without the profit motive, the prospect of a broad-based free school revolution - with the potential of increasing social mobility and improving educational standards for all - looks grim.

73. Why can't the Conservatives all be like Michael Gove? – Telegraph Blogs

Gove: truly we should worship and adore his mighty wondrousness (pic PA)."We're ready to walk out on Europe," Michael Gove has apparently been telling friends. And if there were to be any referendum on the subject he'd vote out.In any sane world this wouldn't be a story. Or only a story along the lines of "Fried eggs don't half go well with bacon," says Education Secretary. Or "dark sky at night, light sky in the morning" observes Gove.The reason it is a story is that we're so unused to hearing any member of our useless government say anything remotely in tune with what the electorate actually feels. Here is Gove saying what most of us have been thinking for years. And being thoroughly, deservedly applauded for it.

74. 'Lefty, hippy types won't be working for me very long': Ofsted boss vows to root out 'trendy' teaching methods in School inspection overhaul

The boss of Ofsted has vowed to get rid of education inspectors who back 'trendy child-centred' teaching methods in light of warnings that such methods damage schoolchildren.Sir Michael Wilshaw denied the schools watchdog was full of 'Lefty, hippy types' but said those who backed those methods 'wouldn't be working for me for very long'.The idealogy was popular in the Sixties and Seventies and saw children left to work along for long periods of time with little help from teachers - although they were championed at the time for allowing youngsters to work independently.He made the comments on Radio 4's Today programme yesterday as he revealed full routine inspections of the majority of England's schools are to be ditched in a major overhaul of the system.

78. Michael Gove: New rigorous exams to abolish GCSEs | Mail Online

79. American economic strengths we could copy | John Redwood's Diary

Yesterday I argued that the US was not growing faster than the UK because it was enjoying a larger fiscal stimulus. Most of you agreed, but some were extremely sceptical of the quality and sustainability of US growth. Today I wish to look at the factors that are assisting the US growth rate. I understand that there is still too much unemployment in the USA, and that some people’s living standards have been badly squeezed. However, the official figures drawn up under international public sector accounting conventions do show faster growth in the USA last year and this, than in troubled Europe.Some have rightly observed that the USA now has very cheap energy in the form of low priced gas, thanks to its enthusiastic embrace of shale gas. Mr Obama was dismissive of Sarah Palin’s “Drill baby, drill” remark when asked about energy policy, yet his administration seems to be adopting it as a practical means of cutting energy bills and providing a big stimulus to industry. The Uk needs to pursue cheaper energy policies, as I have often argued here.

80. *GRAPHIC* Islamic State (ISIS) behead children and women after stripping them naked | Pamela...

Here is a must-read piece from Satya D, a prominent Hindu thinker and activist:From the advent of Islam, it is the brutality that was used to conquer. Will Durant and other authors have translated Arabs own memoirs on how the Islamic invaders have destroyed cultures and swathes of land with utmost brutality and inhumanity with mountains of Kafir’s heads and rivers of blood. Durant quotes how a Sultan of Delhi becomes restless if he does not see mountains of Kafir’s heads every day morning. Steven Knapp quotes Arab memoirs of literally rivers of blood and the number of men and women sold in Arab markets as slaves (women as sex slaves).
