Big loss to @IPPR but fantastic news for my two amazing colleagues @carysroberts and @rachelstatham_ (also for government!) And we have research strength in depth - starting with @harry_qp who will lead us while our trustees start search for a permanent executive director...
Carys Roberts@carysroberts

Some personal news, as they say! It’ll be tough leaving @IPPR as I’ve loved leading a fantastic team with huge impact. But I’m honoured & excited to be asked to help shape and deliver such a critical policy agenda at the heart of the new government. Can’t wait to get stuck in!

@SLC_Repayment My daughter who is overseas wants me to talk to you on her behalf about her account. How does she arrange so you can do that?

@RMCunliffe @RMCunliffe One or two of my @IPPR colleagues have been known to drink coffee and could help plug a gap in one of those long lonely days (at either conference)...

Whilst knowing Conservative Party Conference starts this weekend, I somehow simultaneously had it in my head as "next month" (which technically it is!) and have made basically no plans. So... I'm going to be there? I like coffee? Drinking coffee solo is lonely? Hit me up

Good health is vital to an enjoyable and meaningful life. It's also a crucial determinant of our economic prospects, both at an individual and a national level. Our new report from the @IPPR Commission on Health and Prosperity explores this relationship 🧵

@withorpe Hi Will - are you sure you meant IPPR in your tweet re Richard Sharp? His family foundation hasn't given us £, nor have we send funds to CPS & taxpayers alliance. I just followed you, could you DM me back? Thanks!

It’s absurd that we’re even having a debate about cutting social security levels in a cost of living crisis. Even with an inflationary uplift, Universal Credit levels will fall far short of what the public think is a minimum acceptable standard of living in 2023 🧵

A key task for govt is to ensure that a food industry that’s addicted to unhealthy food is helped to break that says @michaelgove Public health crucial he says (& he believes Therese Coffey will - like others before her -look at the evidence she’s presented with & take heed)

When she was education minister @trussliz was keen on the traditional 3 R's - especially arithmetic (ask any civil servant interviewed by her for a job!) Today she'll be measured against a different set of 3 R's as her govt begins to get to grips with the energy prices crisis 👇

The prime minister needs to set out her plans for the short-term, medium-term and long-term challenges today, based on: 🔹 Rescue 🔹 Reform 🔹 Resilience A 🧵...
