Presenting on my research into all things #DowningStreet #ChiefOfStaff at the #UKAPA2024, today. Looking forward to discussing what it is that the CoS actually does and, as importantly, why it is so difficult to actually identify that.
In case you were wondering, excluding David Wolfson (1979-1985), who was never really #ChiefOfStaff, the 7 are: Stephen Carter (de facto) Jeremy Heywood (de facto) Ed Llewellyn Gavin Barwell Eddie Lister (acting) Dan Rosenfield Liam Booth Smith #DowningStreet #Lords #Politics

🧵on our work on b’ham city council quoted in the FT today. Key takeaways: 🔺the bankruptcy was triggered on the wrong basis 🔺This had disastrous effects as unnecessary cuts & asset sales were rushed through 🔺Another recovery plan is still possible ft.com/content/0afe61eb-5dde…

I've been absolutely horrified by the racist and Islamophobic violence on UK streets in the past week. The full force of the law needs to be brought to bear on the thugs. Now let's unite to build an inclusive, equal, non-discriminatory society. The UK is better than this.

"As a Green MP I'd like to see much bolder action being talked about" The #KingsSpeech doesn't go far enough. Insulation. Building standards. Rent controls. Green MPs will be pushing Labour to do better.

On the day of #GeneralElection2024, it's worth re-reading this brilliant piece from @JenWilliams_FT which offers a lucid account of the depth and impact of regional inequalities & what needs to be fixed by the next government ⤵️ ft.com/content/4c9efaa7-c06b…

Brilliant take on the Labour's school teeth-brushing idea from fellow @CoSS_Birmingham researcher @teachertarot. Using teachers as catch-all policy delivery agents (from policing to public health) intensifies workload and exacerbates the teacher shortage. blog.bham.ac.uk/socialscienc…

All this. I just got an email today to serve on a committee I was put on and nobody told me.
It's time to stop dumping thankless tasks on women. Women get more asks than men to serve on committees, plan events, and take notes. They're more likely to be penalized if they say no—and taken for granted if they say yes. Work should be divided equitably by role, not gender.

Brilliant,if sobering,new report from @MarcusIPPR & @IPPRNorth team England’s regional divides keep widening: wealth per capita in the north-east will have declined to 54 per cent of that in the south-east by 2030 Levelling up will remain an empty slogan until this is addressed
Today, @IPPRNorth publishes our 10th annual State of the North - our assessment of regional inequality, focused on the North. England’s regional gaps mean where you live determines whether you have a shorter, sicker, or less fulfilling life. ippr.org/articles/state-of-t…
