Weekend round up

A few things that you might just be interested in...

I wrote about Britain's non-existent gambling epidemic for Spectator Health.

I wrote about the hysterical overreaction from some charities to the government telling them to stop using taxpayers' money for political campaigning.

I was on the Moral Maze last week, also talking about state-funded lobbying.

I'm currently watching the videos from Spiked's recent free speech conference. Have a look.

The Stats Guy has written more about Cancer Research's silly sugar tax estimate. Also worth a look.

David Leyonhjelm has written a cracking little polemic about 'whinging doctors' and the decline of Sydney. That, too, is worth a look (otherwise I wouldn't be mentioning it).
