I've written a piece, on new power and the new left party. Featuring @CompassOffice @graceblakeley and others.
I argue that Your Party and Reform both better understand new power than the traditional parties of govt, and the latter are playing catch up.

"How does a US election impact the UK high streets debate? Simply, our high streets and their relative health or decline are a real barometer of how people feel about a place."
@NicholasPlumb on why the health of our high streets matters. 👇

Do you have a vision for your high street or town centre you're trying to make a reality?
We're looking for community businesses to help us test and learn how community-led high street regeneration projects can be a model for communities everywhere.

Last night we hosted a reception in Westminster championing the impact community business is already making in communities across England. Thank you to the MPs who took time out of a busy night to meet with community businesses from across the country.

How to prevent a Trump-style rise here? Good early thoughts from @UCLPolicyLab:
💷 Relentless focus on the everyday economy
🔧 Bottom-up redesign of public services + social safety net
🤝 Only in our shared connection and humanity can we build a hopeful politics for the future
James Baggaley@JimBaggaley
“It is worth reflecting on the need for Democrats, and those who share their politics more broadly, to once again confront how many ordinary Americans view them as distant from their everyday concerns”. Early reflections from the team here @UCLPolicyLab. ucl.ac.uk/policy-lab/new…

Great piece from Josh reflecting on the Budget, which shares common ground with @duncanrobinson's excellent Economist column from the other day. economist.com/britain/2024/1…

This sounds great.
Sure it'll open up a few old factional wounds within the Labour Party.

What does the #budget mean for #coops in the #retail, #renewables, community business sectors? Response from @Comm1nrg, @CooperativesUK, @CoopParty and others thenews.coop/co-op-sector-g…

Lots to agree with in here. That's one of the reasons we @powertochange_ champion a community-powered high street, so they become the beating civic heart of local places again.

Easy for some to forget why taxes have had to go up as much as they did in the Budget yesterday
You can't turn this around on the cheap

@NicoleSykes_ @RachelReevesMP 😅To be honest, I have not seen this happy headshot before. The comms team clearly decided now was the time!

Big picture of my face to show we're pleased with @RachelReevesMP emphasis our high streets - partic. as a meeting place for local communities - and that business tax reform plans are a good move.
There will be some short term pain, as rates relief are cut, for longer term gain.
Power to Change@powertochange_
It’s important that the next stages of the Government’s business tax reform plans also recognise the wider contributions of the diverse community business sector in improving social and economic productivity of our high streets and providing a meeting place for local communities.

Pre-#Budget2024, we identified £2.5bn of levelling up funding that was stuck in limbo. Ending the uncertainty and honouring the commitments made to communities is the right choice for government to make – one we commend them for making in difficult circumstances.

This is getting less attention in the noise of the Budget, but the 10% uplift to the local government settlement - including a 3% increase in core spending power - is a significant change to council finances
Jack Shaw@JackTShaw
What's in the Budget for local authorities? 1. Core Spending Power will increase by 3.2 per cent in real terms in 2025-26, with £1.3 billion in grant funding and least £600 million of that for social care. The detail will be set out in the Local Government Finance Settlement.

Excellent work from @jesscraig07 @j_westerling @johnsonnicolev and @tdaviespugh to analyse and respond 👏👏
