Some warm words from @Alison_McGovern welcoming Demos' and @coopuk latest report findings.

@billyhubt presents Demos and @coopuk latest report at the launch earlier today.

📢 Today, we're delighted to launch a new report with @coopuk, which looks at what businesses stand to gain from introducing strategies and practices that promote social mobility in their workforce, and what widespread adoption could mean for productivity and economic growth.

Really excited for this - @Demos launching new report on fixing local government finances. Delighted Baroness Hilary Armstrong and @publicnaylor are joining us to discuss. Sign up here: eventbrite.co.uk/o/demos-839513… 1/2

🏆Our #Researchoftheweek goes to @Demos for their report 'Trustwatch 2024'. It found that trust in Britain’s system of government is at a record low and the relationship between politicians and the public feels increasingly fragile. (1/7) demos.co.uk/research/trust…

Brilliant new report from the team here @Demos on trust in politics. Couldn’t be more relevant. Great work by @billyhubt @DanGoss222 @pollycurtis

I've written for @LabourList about Sue Gray, political trust and our recently published Trustwatch report. labourlist.org/2024/10/govern…

🚨NEW RESEARCH🚨 Trust in Britain’s system of government is at a record low and the relationship between politicians and the public feels increasingly fragile.

Excellent new report by my colleagues setting out a playbook for building political trust

.@pollycurtis discusses the report in The Times here. (4/4) thetimes.com/comment/column…

Combining these insights with original polling, secondary literature, and expert interviews, we've built a playbook for building political trust. (3/4)

Delighted to share 'Trustwatch 2024: A playbook to rebuild trust in politics', which I co-authored with @DanGoss222 and @pollycurtis. (1/4) demos.co.uk/research/trust…

And my piece in the @thetimes about it here thetimes.com/comment/column…

If events of the weekend tell us anything it's that rebuilding trust in politics is hard and Sir Keir Starmer's "battle for trust" is under strain. Today at @Demos we publish Trustwatch 2024, identifying the drivers of distrust in the political system. demos.co.uk/wp-content/upl…

Just arrived in Liverpool for #LabourConference24. @Demos has a stellar line-up of events, including a conversation with the legendary Sir John Curtice this evening. Check out our programme and do come and say "Hello"! demos.co.uk/blogs/join-dem…

Excited to publish @Demos Citizens' White Paper today, with @involveUK. It sets out why, when and how the govt should embed public participation in national policy making if it wants to win back trust and make policies that work for people. demos.co.uk/research/citiz… 🧵👇

🚨NEW RESEARCH🚨 The challenges facing the country are daunting. From broken public services to a chronic breakdown of trust, the period ahead will be marked by difficult decisions in a fiscally-constrained environment. Taking the public on this journey will not be easy. 1/

New @ONS statistics continue to show that the new government's mission to 'kickstart economic growth' could be held back by the UK's underperforming labour market — Employment rate of 74.4% remains 1.8ppts below pre-pandemic, equivalent to about 750,000 fewer workers 🧵 (1/11)
