I'm into politics, policy & the critique of everyday life. I believe in the public value of culture: beautiful & meaningful things make us better people.

In UK si celebra il centenario del suffragio femminile con #PROCESSIONS2018. Uguaglianza vera però è ancora lontana. Celebriamo i successi del passato, continuiamo a cambiare il presente e sopratutto impegniamoci a costruire un futuro diverso! https://t.co/mGXDPgion8

NEW: The actions of Trump and Vance in recent weeks highlight something under-appreciated.

The American right is now ideologically closer to countries like Russia, Turkey and in some senses China, than to the rest of the west (even the conservative west).

By all means repost this, @ElonMusk

Dopo una lunga settimana chiudiamo con queste due immagini.

Una serata senza scontri, in cui protagonista è stato il paese reale, e una società civile che sa sempre rispondere presente, e farlo all’altezza delle aspettative.

Un minuto di silenzio per i tanti delusi, e per chi in questi giorni ha avuto l’ardire di attaccarmi (sapete chi siete, non fatevi taggare).

Ma soprattutto, chiudiamo con una sensazione che non provavo da tempo: l’orgoglio di essere (anche) Britannico.

You seeing this, @ElonMusk?

Why not just stay away? Someone asked... well on a case by case basis I think it's worth working class people having their say about what they actually want - which seems to be to live in peace across ethnic and religious boundaries. Shot this about an hour ago - ✊🏼

As the civil service gears up for whatever tomorrow may bring, it seems the perfect moment to share reflections from the late Cabinet Secretary, Jeremy Heywood, on the 10 attributes of a great civil servant. The list starts with flexibility….

For those of my followers not familiar with French politics:
This does not mean that France faces the risk of a Le Pen presidency. Elections of the National Assembly do not determine president, just the PM.

@goodlawgeek @1ParliCounsel So brilliant that Legislate is still going strong. 👏👏👏

[ParliamentaryCounsel @ParliCounsel_UK]

Have you ever wondered who writes our laws and how they go about it? We and our colleagues @cabinetofficeuk Press Office have put together a short film of a day in the life of a Parliamentary Counsel. Enjoy!

The complexity of global challenges can make our shared problems seem overwhelming and distant. But art can help to make complex topics accessible, engage new audiences, and help us reimagine what is possible to shape a better future: https://t.co/DM1QAjNLwp

In this one-week experiment on adding the climate cost, the “wahre Kosten” or “real costs” campaign saw the price of wiener sausages rise from €3.19 to €6.01, mozzarella go up by 74% to €1.55, and fruit yoghurt increase by 31% from €1.19 to €1.56. https://t.co/Woo8Y8ArgK

Utilizzare le parole pronunciata da @robertosaviano al funerale di Michela Murgia, per screditare Roberto stesso, è la misura di quanto i giornali di regime temano una piazza dove garrivano bandiere italiane, bandiere arcobaleno e palloncini a unicorno.

#libero

[Alessandro Giammei @giammei]

Anche solo pensare, malignamente, che Roberto Saviano abbia tenuto un suo «comizio» al funerale, è irricevibile.

It's embarrassing to hear such an incredible level of ignorance about our #ClimateCrisis in the Lords. It shows how hard we have to work to educate lawmakers Sunak and Starmer and their political parties. Really best to just #VoteGreen from here on. https://t.co/70TBQu9rgl
