Nicholas Bloom, co-author of the National Bureau of Economic Research Working Paper "The Economic Impact of Brexit", which claimed that Brexit has reduced GDP by 6-8%, spoke to Robert Peston about his findings. He argued that we would have "doubled the money on the NHS if we'd not left the EU".

We've found this great photo of some of the locals of Hedgerley in the 1920s. This should come as no surprise given their facial expressions, but this photo was taken right outside of the Brickmould pub, where the eight men seem to have been enjoying themselves.

A black and white photo of eight men sat down on a grass verge in the 1920s. There is a wooden fence behind them. Most of them are looking at the camera. Several are smoking with pipes and they all are wearing hats. One man, in the bottom right, is staring off into the distance with half a pint still held in his hand. Their clothing is fairly typical for agricultural labourers, with hard wearing jackets, boots, and trousers. Many of the men are smiling enthusiastically. The caption of the photo goes into detail about one of the men. In the bottom right is ''Tanny' Burford, a [mixed race] man who played the bones and sang for beer in the pubs'.
