"Delivering the scale of climate action needed to fulfil our national ambitions is also an era-defining opportunity to build local economies which are focused on increasing the flow, circulation and ownership of wealth"
Ace report from @ellieradcliffe9 and @CLESthinkdo colleagues

Big shout out to @LeahMillthorne @DavidB_CLES @Helenisworking Joseph Tupling Balint Lucaks for all their hard work on producing this analysis.

Watch out for more in 2024 👀

Growth is not enough. We need to ask who profits from it and who is left behind. Our new report reveals the hidden flows of wealth in Greater Manchester and how we can create a more democratic and inclusive economy

I notice that some 'inclusive growth' advocates are now starting to talk about 'fair growth'. Perhaps thinking a switch in discourse may result in a new credibility. It won't work! Old piece from me and @DavidB_CLES

Absolutely right that the issue is as much about the absence of intentional progressive approaches to transforming purchasing power @DavidB_CLES than required changes in law, and well-meaning rhetoric needs to be replaced by meaningul collaborative action

Some thoughts on the power of procurement to transform the health and wealth of our local communities 👇

I'm focussed on practical action toward an economy that genuinely works for people, place and planet- #communitywealthbuilding However, it is worth debunking the wrong starting points. Here is me and @DavidB_CLES on the hapless oxymoron #inclusivegrowth https://t.co/fkugF3lxZj

[Neil McInroy @nmcinroy]

Lot of talk about growth in last few days. Here is me and @DavidB_CLES from 4 years ago, explaining why we needed #inclusiveeconomy not #inclusivegrowth

[Sarah Longlands @sarahlonglands]

Great day @CLESthinkdo supporting places to think differently about local economies. Moving from picking winners to foundational. From inclusive growth to inclusive economy, from drifting markets to anchoring wealth. @DavidB_CLES @SeanBenstead @RedRachelita @tweetingantonia
