Writing the word “sceptical” on your movement doesn’t make you sceptics, any more than writing the word “cold” on a box makes it a fridge. Scepticism involves work, real work, assessing and revising your own beliefs, not just reflexively rejecting what you see as orthodoxy

The 2021 Census is going to be totally useless at helping plan transport or housing or anything that might benefit from the answers to this question. Website worked well though.

Yesterday I visited Transport House in Salford. The leaseholders there are part the next stage in the cladding crisis. But their problem isn't really what's on their building. It's what's in it. Their freeholder has told them it will cost £3m to make safe. Over £100k each. 🧵

Some context on the 'brownfield first' shift, and my first ever thread 🫣: 1/ Most homes or 'new addresses' are already built on brownfield, less than 14% of new homes are built on former 'agricultural land' and around 1% on green belt (excl brownfield in green belt)

It’s been reported in The Mill that Places for Everyone, the Greater Manchester-wide development plan, could be on the brink of collapse. The reason? Proposed changes to national policy making it easier to plan for fewer homes. Here’s why that really matters. 🧵
