Presenting on my research into all things #DowningStreet #ChiefOfStaff at the #UKAPA2024, today. Looking forward to discussing what it is that the CoS actually does and, as importantly, why it is so difficult to actually identify that.
12 Sep 2024
In case you were wondering, excluding David Wolfson (1979-1985), who was never really #ChiefOfStaff, the 7 are: Stephen Carter (de facto) Jeremy Heywood (de facto) Ed Llewellyn Gavin Barwell Eddie Lister (acting) Dan Rosenfield Liam Booth Smith #DowningStreet #Lords #Politics

🧵on our work on b’ham city council quoted in the FT today. Key takeaways: šŸ”ŗthe bankruptcy was triggered on the wrong basis šŸ”ŗThis had disastrous effects as unnecessary cuts & asset sales were rushed through šŸ”ŗAnother recovery plan is still possible ft.com/content/0afe61eb-5dde…

I've been absolutely horrified by the racist and Islamophobic violence on UK streets in the past week. The full force of the law needs to be brought to bear on the thugs. Now let's unite to build an inclusive, equal, non-discriminatory society. The UK is better than this.

"As a Green MP I'd like to see much bolder action being talked about" The #KingsSpeech doesn't go far enough. Insulation. Building standards. Rent controls. Green MPs will be pushing Labour to do better.

Brilliant take on the Labour's school teeth-brushing idea from fellow @CoSS_Birmingham researcher @teachertarot. Using teachers as catch-all policy delivery agents (from policing to public health) intensifies workload and exacerbates the teacher shortage. blog.bham.ac.uk/socialscienc…
