I’ve spent quite a bit of time on my gutters this weekend, and I think I was influenced by this

If you're looking to lobby the new crop of MPs, my 'Which constituency is that in?' postcode lookup tool has been updated with the latest Parliament API data (thanks to an anonymous civil servant for giving me the nudge): constituencies.squiffy.io/

Imagine being able to have another go at the job you had and loved 14 years ago, with the benefit of everything you've learned in the meantime. I'd be grinning too 😃

Great to see this appointment of the former Chief Scientific Adviser as well as those of Richard Hermer KC and @JamesTCobbler - @Keir_Starmer prioritising subject knowledge and expertise in his government which is something for which the @instituteforgov has long argued 👍
Sir Patrick Vallance KCB has been appointed Minister of State (Minister for Science) in the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology @SciTechgovuk.

I've created the survey! If enough people complete it I'll be able to create a vast array of terrible maps from the data. It should take less than 10 mins to complete so if you have 5-10 mins to spare i'd really appreciate your answers. Please share/like/comment to increase reach! (Link is in subsequent post because putting a link in a post seems to massively limit reach) Thanks!
Given that my follower count is now similar to the population of a small country, I'm thinking of doing a survey to collect some interesting/stupid data and make some maps. If you have any suggestions for questions/maps then now is the time to speak up! Thanks 🙃

Looking forward to it obviously, but I'm not sure 5 July 2024 is going to feel like 2 May 1997. Trump II on the horizon, Putin-Xi, no real prospect of climate action, the open internet in decline... worst of all, I'm not 17 again. But still.
