Love @michaelsheen, but to say @BankJobPictures pioneered this work on very little resources, the original film is excellent and it’s really sad to see not any reference to Dan, Hilary the brilliant late great @davidgraeber and many others who featured and pulled such a shift.

Make sure you're watching Channel 4 at 9pm this evening for @michaelsheen's new documentary. Sheen pays off £1m of debt using £100k of his own money, and calls on government to take action through a Fair Banking Act. fairbankingforall.org #FairBankingForAll @FBfACampaign

New data highlights some Social Landlords have a very large proportion of their homes failing to meet quality standards. Over 60% of Birmingham City Council and Railway HA homes fail the decent home standard.Huge. Worst offenders are LAs (perhaps they have more robust surveys?)

Working in partnership with business, can only happen if government is clear on what the goals are (e.g. health for all, net zero), and then works with business to make that happen, through collective investment, designing contracts that socialize BOTH risks and rewards. In my book "The Value of Everything: making and taking in the global economy", and in books like Brett Christophers' "Rentier Capitalism", we look at how Blackrock has benefitted from the opposite: socialization of risk & privatization of rewards. So yes partnership is key, but must first define what a good partnership looks like. I also warned against the bland "business friendly" rhetoric in my pre-election @NewStatesman article newstatesman.com/comment/2023/0…, and how to build symbiotic partnerships giving the concept of "stakeholder value" more meaning in this @HarvardBiz article hbr.org/2022/09/what-r…
Keir Starmer@Keir_Starmer

I'm determined to deliver growth, create wealth and put more money in people’s pockets. This can only be achieved by working in partnership with leading businesses, like @BlackRock, to capitalise on the UK’s position as a world leading hub for investment.

So much heaviness in global politics this week, it was energising to be in a space clearly stretching imaginations + creating new economic possibilities from individual to systemic, city-wide scales, in enabling the generous distribution of skills, know how, materials + tools

The Reuse Hub, a collaboration between @WoodSaints and the Rebuild Site, intercepts timber and other surplus materials from construction sites and across the construction supply chain, enabling reuse of these materials at their highest use value for as long as possible!

Demonstrations of how retrofit can enable us to reimagine the existing fabric of our cities, from infrastructures in service of vast industrial production to those which service the needs (social and ecological) of our time
