@platformplaces @RTrevalyan @francesnorthrop @jesstud @davidboyle1958 @NicholasPlumb @wearenewlocal @Radix_UK @peoplesbiz @HighStreetsTF @BritProp So much inspiration in this thread! We opened Indirock this year in a 7500sq ft unit which had stood empty for 15 years on our high street in Southend-on-Sea. We've been honoured to be part of Platform Places: https://t.co/Js2QcZpPNa

@timburrows We're just setting up a new business in a Southend shopping centre, https://t.co/yBlaaJDTgQ and would love to chat!

This is urgent! The Government wants to impose a catastrophic 50% funding cut to arts subjects at higher education (HE) level in England. I've joined the @Public_Campaign for the Arts to tell @GavinWilliamson: arts education matters. Will you join too? https://t.co/fsWmRvX5wP

@BBC6Music why is your DJ pool so un-diverse...? When the #music industry is so rich in different cultures, how have you managed to get so trapped in a middle aged, white corner? Please shake it up!! #Diversity #BlackHistoryMonth

As many of you may know, @gordonconroy and I have been busy starting up Southend's first #climbing wall... Following #COVID19 delays we're nearly ready to start building! Please follow our adventures on Instagram ( @indirock_ ) and come climb when we open. 🥳💪👊 #SocEnt

Dominic Cummings, on the other hand, was defended despite his party disloyalty in flouting lockdown guidelines, lying and gravely embarrassing the PM. How are we supposed to retain any respect for this government...?

#FailingGrayling who has the blood of countless lives on his hands as a result of his #prison & #probation 'reforms,' then continued a path of destruction wasting an unconscionable amount of taxpayers' money in the process, pipped to the post by someone who's actually qualified..

[Emily Ann @eavermont]

The whip is removed from Julian Lewis for his 'disloyalty' to the party, when Grayling as chairman would have not have been in the national interest and could even have endangered it...

I understand the need to keep the country's morale up during #coronavirus but will @BBCNews @BBCr4today start holding our govt to account at some point? Plenty of scrutiny for other countries but not our own... #Covid19UK #BorisJohnson

@CormacRussell So true, we all saw through the "Big Society" vision because it was at the same time the #tories brought in #austerity...

[Emily Ann @eavermont]

I don't believe in the centralisation of solutions. It's only by the centre letting go of power that appropriate, lasting, even 'innovative' solutions are found. But for that to happen money needs to come with it! https://t.co/MvXV2XA4Sw Thanks @CormacRussell #charity #community

@SouthendBC I vote for 2C!

Are you willing to relinquish your #privilege? This is such an astute analysis of what's going on in our world with #neoliberalism going unchecked. Thanks @RSAEvents @AnandWrites https://t.co/ULJQc0CQhP via @YouTube

@davidsocialsp @cliffprior @richardlitch @PioneersPost @BigSocietyCap Very well put! There's lots to be frustrated by in this exchange, and a question I'd like to add is why should it be OK for @BigSocietyCap to spend £6.4m on admin? We who work in social enterprises could only dream of the sort of salaries that BSC must be paying themselves...

Emotional afternoon at the #ClimateStrike I feel very powerless. Where was @BorisJohnson ?? Thanks to the #youth for making this happen, amazing sense of unity. #ExtinctionRebellion #ClimateChange #ClimateEmergency

Would your social enterprise benefit from the use of a prime retail space in Covent Garden? 🌻

We’re hoping we can make it happen, but need your help to turn it into a reality. Take a 5-min survey (you might even win a £50 John Lewis voucher) #socent https://t.co/tRf3MZxpKi

Do you ever get the feeling you're unaware of your own privilege? This is one powerful article which I encourage everyone to read... #WhitePrivilege #CharitySoWhite Thanks @AmyBarbor for sharing! https://t.co/vRtGk0yuq6
