The housing crisis is not a licence for the state to seize private property.

Government policy has created the shortage, fix the policy: build more homes, and make existing houses more accessible.

Property rights are fundamental rights, not rights the government should be able to revoke on a whim.

Bloomberg on Burnham's first conference speech as leader:
"The policy side is still a work-in-progress but aides think they’ve arrived at the right story to tell about his vision."
If you want to know why everything costs more, but nothing works, that's your answer, right there.

@stuartisbister @JamesTCobbler This just comes across as daft snark.

Pretty obvious that a business would want to know how much a freebie was being used, and it's not like it's difficult to do

AI can be a really wonderful tool for exploring topics far from coding.

I had Claude Fable 5.1 put together an annotated guide to Eliot's poem "The Wasteland," with multiple pathways through the poem, recordings, scholarship, etc. I am quite impressed. https://t.co/jts07kn2Ze

@GarethDennis @djh84 @HCH_Hill What's a ballpark (real world!) figure for replacing a level crossing with a bridge?

[Ian Turton @turtmcfly]

@GarethDennis @djh84 @HCH_Hill I'd rather he ditched the 'mildly cryptic snark' after, say, his first reply, but... what do you think this means in the context of his original quote tweet?

AFAICS it's 'build a level crossing instead, that £200+m could be more effectively allocated'

@Padraiccleary @GarethDennis The concept of opportunity cost is going to absolutely rock your world.

[Peray Ahmet @perayahmet]

Haringey’s lead on Health and Social Care (NHS doctor by day) cannot say the word WOMAN. He refers to us as ‘CIS’.

When I was leader of Haringey Council, 9/10 of my Cabinet were women.

The Greens won 6 councils in May, all of the deposed leaders/Mayors were women. They replaced with one woman. London now has 4 women in leadership positions across all parties.

In order to defend and promote trans rights you do not need to erase my existence.

Say WOMAN.

Can we just accept that African’s are disproportionately likely to be psychotic so therefore a danger to the public & refuse them visas or asylum?

Given the state of the world, the folly of indulging in this sort of nationalist play-acting is jaw-dropping. If you think we have the luxury of spending years debating and then possibly negotiating the fragmentation of our country at this moment in time, you're crazy
