Music stuff @dreaming_spires

Ok I'm calling it.

The Ten-Year Plan is going to be AI-boosterism, data centre rollouts, defence-led re-industrialisation and lip service as to how they'll fund house-building by taxing the economic boom they think this will create.

Or, in other words, total nonsense.

[Jon Wiltshire @JonWiltshire_]

The @LibDems plea to @TheGreenParty to defect serves as an excellent reminder to join the Greens.

@ZackPolanski isn't even an MP, yet forced @andyburnham to the table over this summer's extreme heat.

Imagine what they could do with a bigger base of MPs.

@TimSmith2021 sounds like 2026 in a nutshell!

[Larry Sanders @Sanders4Health]

Wow! This must surely finish Farage. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy!

An evening exploring imagination with William Blake and Rowan Williams
– is reason the only arbiter we have?

@seanhannam @ashofficial @MusicRadar @prescriptionpr nice article Sean- I never knew about Tim's TFC influence, makes perfect sense!

[UK Music @UK_Music]

A big thank you to @dreaming_spires and @JohnKennedy who let our Chief Exec @Tomkiehl join them for the recording of a session for X-Posure with John Kennedy on @RadioX in Leicester Square. A fantastic show and brilliant session.

@TimSmith2021 @thebeatles this is quite often my favourite album ever...

[Caitlin Hafferty @CaitlinHafferty]

This week I went to Bold Politics Live, Resistance is Existence, March Against the Far Right, & the Green Party conference.

Lots of talk about system change. Also about listening, relationships, & local, collective power.

So I wrote my first Substack! ➡️ https://t.co/emDpiT9dFP

@CaitlinHafferty thanks for the article - it chimes with many things I've thought and observed

[Robin Bennett @robinfbennett]

@IGMansfield This was very much my experience in 4 years on my local upper tier authority. No wonder turnout is so low. I'm still on the district council where we still have (some) discretionary spending choices!

[Robin Bennett @robinfbennett]

@CringePun @BNHWalker Absolute nonsense about doing the 'best areas first'. If anything the opposite, you do areas you don't have good data on first.

[Robin Bennett @robinfbennett]

@_LiamWalker_ @ianhudspeth Best wishes for this afternoon. Ian was a major Oxfordshire figure, and was always generous to me. RIP.

[Robin Bennett @robinfbennett]

@ZackPolanski Very good🤣- seriously, Hannah looks like an amazing candidate

[The Green Party @TheGreenParty]

Say hello to Hannah Spencer—councillor, plumber, greyhound lover and your Green Party candidate for Gorton and Denton 💚

[Chris Williams @chrisw100]

Greens or Reform now!

Labour admit they're in 3rd place #GortonDenton

[Dave Hampton - Riverman 🌍🌳💦 @carboncoach]

I've chipped in.
5 million of us, at a tenner each, is so much greater than
49 billionaires lobbing in a million each: for a peerage?

[Green Elects @GrnElects]

🚨 @ZackPolanski has launched the Greens Gorton and Denton by-election campaign.

Here we go! 💚
