Keith Mason is a dickhead. He has been trying to cut UK funding in Particle Physics for years. What a dickhead.

I just hate how science is funded in Britain full stop. The amount that is spent on science is pathetic, I've never understood it. It's not like it's an unwise investment, for each pound spent we can expect to see up to seven returned if it's something valuable. For example if we can develop fusion power the amount it would make for us would be tremendous, it would be a wise investment.

Meh, at least we have the leading role at the LHC, that's good.

...

Yes, anyway, I can't wait for some substantial results from the LHC. It's great that things seem to be functioning now.
