The Government is guilty of gross mismanagement of HS2 and of making the North pay for their failure.

Once again, passengers here are seen as second-class citizens.

It’s time for an honest conversation about what they WILL do for the North and let voters decide if it’s enough.

We're very pleased to announce that Cartwheel Arts has been awarded a £92,340 grant by @HeritageFundUK to deliver Crafting Heritage, a two-year project which explores and celebrates the heritage crafts of Rochdale's refugee and asylum seeker communities.

@PhinHarper @ArchitectsFront I can’t join tonight, but my challenge to the industry is with so many architects and designers concentrated in London - how can they help make sure children growing up in #Rochdale #Rotherham and #Redcar have much better exposure to the roles and career pathways to our industry?

[Oliver @OliverBoaler]

@PhinHarper @ArchitectsFront Completely agree - and is part of a vicious cycle where even those who break that ceiling tend to end up working in practices in better off urban centres, designing building in better off areas.

There are of course exceptions - but ultimately you can’t be what you can’t see.

Please RT if you do too.

#Greenwashing from @MatthewsArch and @Prop_Alliance - there’s nothing net-zero about demolishing existing buildings of this quality.

Reedham House which @ManCityCouncil approves of its demolition in order for Alliance Property Group to err...
'create a new flagship net zero in operation office building'

Can't beat a bit of bullshit jargon.

The city of Berlin’s culture budget (population 7m) for 2024 has been set at €947m. The whole of England’s culture budget (population 57m) for 2024 is £458.5m. I know there’s lottery and local authority funding on top, but it doesn’t add up to anything like the per capita spend.

@carl_thompson70 @eamonncanniffe So many beautiful rhythms and proportions on that street to be inspired by and reference - and we get this, combined with the most lacklustre excuse pocket park I’ve ever seen!

My great pleasure to join @LucyMPowell to launch Labour Creatives in the North West at @ITV studios in Manchester tonight.

A network that won’t just back our creative industries, but boost them.

[Gary Neville @GNev2]

He was described as uninspiring and boring! We were told he didn’t have the personality to lead! (Things levelled at Labours current leader.) Listen to the passion when describing the achievements of a Labour Government. Listen to the achievements,compared to the Conservatives in the last 13 years. We need serious people back in government asap! 🌹
