Glaring policy disconnect between highly supportive statements on inshore fisheries in The SNP 2021 Scottish Parliament manifesto (which doesn’t mention #HPMAs ) and the blanket ban proposed in Scottish Government HPMAs consultation. #CommunityWealthBuilding #JustTransition
I just knew that #ThisisTheNorth convention would lift me out of my autumn budget funk! Pretty instantly met a great bunch of women who reminded me to be excited about what’s strong and not what’s wrong! Feeling hopeful hearing about Preston’s #communitywealthbuilding strategy
Thanks to all who came along to the public meeting in Oban last night (& MICT on Zoom). It was great to obtain such a strong public mandate to explore shared ownership of renewables for the community in Oban, Lorn & the Isles.

Heading home after a fascinating weekend at Scotonomics The insightful discussion, varied topics & generous speakers were a delight - my head is buzzing! I was honoured to play a small part & talk about #communitywealthbuilding for (CLES) Centre for Local Economic Strategies with Neil McInroy & John Alexander.
A talk about #community action with change makers who want to increase civic #engagement via political #education that'll empower positive change for
#Communitywealthbuilding to ensure that we're all politically educated & encouraged to bring about equitable policies for change.
A huge THANK YOU to all our attendees and speakers for making #EVOC2023Conference a tremendous success.

En in de papieren de Volkskrant vandaag. 'Ongetwijfeld kun je dat (optimisme) psychologisch duiden als 'ontkenning' of 'overreactie', maar ik was in Preston in Noord Engeland geweest en daar zag ik perspectief.' #communitywealthbuilding volkskrant.nl/cs-bac3d8d1
