Britain used to have wage councils that set the minimum wage
per sector. Mrs Thatcher saw to it that they were abolished, together
(effectively) with trades unions and council houses – thus yielding the present
Precariat-Proletariat whose palpable anger and frustration is evident across
the land. There is no doubt that we need to bring back a modernised for of wage
councils. Not just in the UK but across Europe! It is the only way we can
safeguard genuine freedom of movement. Here is why:
The oligarchs in Eastern Europe, and
elsewhere, want the freedom of moving their money around and the freedom to
export surplus labour from their country - people who would rather stay at home
if a living wage were available locally. These oligarchs must be told in no uncertain
terms: Your freedom of movement (and that of your money) is conditional on
legislating a living wage in your own country for your citizens. This is a
condition for being part of a European free movement area. And this condition
must be imposed by the EU! Why does Brussels think it has a right to come to,
say, Greece, to impose cuts to the lowest of the low pensions? How about
imposing, instead, across Europe a minimum living wage and pension which
terminates instantly involuntary migration, and thus safeguards genuine freedom
of movement?

Time Health - Study: Switching Schools May Give Your Kids Psychotic Symptoms
Changing schools can be a wrenching social and emotional experience for students, say researchers from Warwick Medical School in the U.K. And the legacy of that struggle may be psychosis-like symptoms of hallucinations and delusions.
Dr. Swaran Singh, a psychiatrist and head of the mental health division at Warwick, became curious about the connection between school moves and mental health issues after a study from Denmark found that children moving from rural to urban settings showed increased signs of psychoses. The authors also noted that the students had to deal with not just a change in their home environment, but in their social network of friends at school as well.
