ED @OpenOwnership. Accountable company ownership, and cat pictures.

@reider Yeah, I had a similar thought when I saw it a couple of weeks ago, but I couldn't think of another explanation for the madness.

@JamesJWalsh hi James. I'm being slightly lazy (could google this!), but do you know who to get in touch with about occupancy of new retail units at Lewisham Gateway? Developer's website is very out of date - unclear who is taking the space eg. the cinema tenant fell through etc

To harness the power of beneficial ownership data to tackle corruption, we need to ensure that users can easily access & understand it.

The Beneficial Ownership Data Standard is a tool to collect, maintain and share well-structured & standardized data.

I made my maiden speech as the new MP for Kensington & Bayswater on day two of the King’s Speech debate.

Our community makes a huge contribution to national life - but we must tackle the deep inequality that holds back the potential of far too many.

Due to some world class incompetence by @royalairmarocuk I find myself stranded in Casablanca tonight. The heroes @LewishamCouncil sorted an emergency proxy vote in 14 minutes. Thank you, Jamie. #GE24

@willperrin @DanNeidle It’s been open in this way for a few years (maybe 2021 (would need to check)).

[Thom Townsend (thomtownsend.bsky.social) @thomtownsend]

@DanNeidle @OpenOwnership It's a nightmare trying to figure out how to show the *many* variants of access regime worldwide on a map so this is a bit of reduction. Long story short, 'pure' public (if the UK is the benchmark) - very few.

Two new policy briefings are hot off the press:
join us as we delve into defining and capturing information on the #BeneficialOwnership of investment funds. Is BO disclosure is an appropriate instrument to generate useful information for their oversight?

At today's Africa #IACC in #Zambia, our Mutale @Mr_Macharius spoke about our work to ensure that #BeneficialOwnership data from national registers is structured in such a way that it can be connected with other transnational datasets to help connect the dots of who owns what.

@primevideouk I’ve paid £2.99 to go ad free yet I’m still seeing freevee (?) 5/6 second ads interrupting programmes. Why is that? Why does ad free have ads?
