Welcome to the SPA Resources and Blog page. Here we have blogs, vlogs, links, statements, articles and ideas building up. Let us know what you need more of (or less of!).
The objective of SPA is to get to a healthy, happy society with equal opportunities for all. Much to do then! Most requests for information and understanding are currently around the social philosophy of ‘Diversity and Inclusion’ or ‘DEIB’ (etc), where we critique both poles of recent arguments and end up as what we call ‘Radical Moderates’!
We write from a perspective informed by many things including literacy in critical thinking, liberal (enlightenment/objective) and critical (post-modern/subjective) approaches, economics, statistics and religious traditions. We hope you find it helpful. Contact us with any question or need.

Keep looking for the growth rate in ‘Daily New Cases’ to slow down by early/mid-April, for hope and
Ok, for those who asked….latest stats update with this fast multiplying virus…. So 40 Covid-19 fatalities today in UK. Up from 107 total yesterday. We know the ‘cases’ figure stuffed at us on the awful BBC News stats so far is meaningless. That’s only those tested, not what’s out there.
My degree was in statistics, and I use it often. With my statistics head on… Please read this excellent research so far from Imperial College. Thanks to my friend Vladimir Shadrunov for passing it on. It shows the expected scale of the pandemic depending on various forms of Government action.
