Happy Birthday to spiked

Spiked is 10 years old today. The online publication, for which I am proud to be a contributor, is a unique advocate for prosperity, freedom and progress.

Of the 10 most popular articles over the past decades (with a cavat that the statistics are not perfect) the two most directly relevant to growth scepticism were my review on towards an age of abundance and an attack by Brendan O’Neill on the flawed notion of overpopulation. But the striking thing is the range of subjects covered including pieces that could be loosely classified under the headings of culture, free speech, international relations and science.
