UK 3rd again in the latest INSEAD/WIPO innovation index - https://www.globalinnovationindex.org/gii-2016-report.

Central to that is the supportive role the government plays in global research collaborations. It's good to hear this week that the government has pledged to plug the gap that leaving Horizon2020 will create in our research spending, although time will tell if that will be sufficient to encourage continued collaboration between researchers here and throughout Europe (and the world). Fingers crossed.
 
There's an interesting parallel between this and a recent debate on Australian tv on climate change (the clip below sums it up). In the interest of 'balance', Australian senator Malcolm Roberts was on there talking utter bunkem, thus getting air time for what is sheer nonsense. At the same time, it's poo poohing the idea that Brian Cox (an expert) actually knows what he's talking about, or indeed that expert institutions (NASA in this instance) can be trusted to act responsibly.

I don,t believe in climate change either Bruce - I have a solid ful coal log central heating system ;)
When I was. School in the late 1960,s they were predicting an ice age!
Seen a documentary on channel 4, and an Icelandic scientist living not far from the North Pole, he stated now we have the technology to travel there, the pictures you see of the melting is their warm period like as natural as our seasons!
In other words go back 3 months later the ice refeezes it also went into the late 1890,s when the river Thames froze over so bad they held a weekly market on it!
It's gradual seasons changing IE Nature!
