All the best things seem impossible until they are done 🏠👊 Chief Program Officer @groundednetwork also @Center4CLTs (& formerly @LondonCLT)

Excellent to spend the morning with Ben from @Center4CLTs, showing him around @LondonCLT’s St Clements

[Dave Smith @DSmithHousing]

Great morning with @DouglassCLT looking at their latest homes with lasting affordability in Brookland, DC.

$800k family homes brought down to a price local working families can afford forever 👏👊

[Dave Smith @DSmithHousing]

So great figures from #WorldCLTday and @Center4CLTs

All these videos of French fascists waiting for the exit poll and then standing there with faces like smacked arses when it pops up are incredible. So funny.

The parallels between Gareth Southgate and Kier Starmer’s leadership are something else….

[Dave Smith @DSmithHousing]

I cannot get over this Supreme Court ruling. It is beyond awful

[Dave Smith @DSmithHousing]

Finally… I thought the moderators and format were excellent!

[Dave Smith @DSmithHousing]

Well I was wrong again! About point 2 at least…

I felt Biden lost from the first word - not in content so much but in presentation.

That was all round difficult and sad to watch. Oh well. 😭

Hubris, I imagine…

And a misunderstanding of the purpose debates in this day & age. Nobody watches live anymore - they serve one purpose: click-bait

But without gasps & gaffuws that a live audience bring there is no moment like this. We are used to sitcoms with laughter tracks
