This is really very good and you should read it. @youngvulgarian.marieleconte.com as so often articulating things impeccably - right down to the impulse just to go "waaahh", which I really share

If this government is serious about helping people back into work, it should be thinking about the quality of support job centres provide - not restricting access to benefits. @pollardtom.bsky.social spoke to the @financialtimes.com www.ft.com/content/2ea2...

Quote from Tom Pollard: “The fundamental barrier to getting more of this group back into work is overcoming the distrust and fear people experience. There’s lots more you could do to foster voluntary engagement.”

I've summarised the paper in a blog here. My co-author @shadibrazell.bsky.social has consistently reminded us that ‘culture eats strategy for breakfast.' Collaboration has to be thought of across gov as both a value to cultivate and a skill to teach www.futuregovernanceforum.co.uk/2025/01/30/g...

Nick Grimshaw and Amol Rajan having an absolute ball on 6music this morning is doing the most for a grim grey morning

Reflecting on Starmer’s comments on the CS yday and on the response it’s got in Whitehall since. If there’s any piece of advice I’d give Starmer - and at this fragile juncture I want to shout it from the rooftops - it would be: ‘Blame the system, not the people’. 🧵

Still figuring out next move work-wise, but hugely enjoying doing some thinking with @gracewyld.bsky.social & others for @futuregovforum.bsky.social on how central Gov can and should work in closer partnership with civil society organisations to make progress on the missions 🤓 👀

Generally, I feel smug and superior about our small telly (intellectual snob / puritan vibes). International rugby season is a huge exception to that...

Just subscribed to @londoncentric.bsky.social and so far would recommend...seems a great addition to our media landscape, along side OnLondon & the legendary Dave Hill

Already having a whale of a time hosting the London Conference 2024...really good to hear from Sadiq Khan as always, with an acknowledgement that Londoners in our 20s and 30s (no points for guessing which decade I'm in) are justified in being frustrated at the state of the housing market. #LDN24
