North Yorkshire Council: all voices should be heard North Yorkshire’s local authority currently has one party making all the big decisions. Would democracy be served better by a modern committee system?

Must read article for those interested in local government. True democratic representation and transparent decision making missing in many councils

People who say I’m hard to shop for must not know where to buy books.

The Big Bethany Sleep Out 2025 I love the streets of Edinburgh but I hate the fact that 103 people were sleeping rough on them in December of last year, according to Simon Community Scotland. That’s in addition to the 20,823 homele

This is the Platonic ideal of the kind of statement we need from opposition party leaders right now. It's not a leftist speech; it's not lawyerly speech. It's a *political* speech by a *mainstream* elected representative that speaks in exactly the right register to the moment.

I know you're all desperate to get home and read the books you've bought to celebrate World Book Day, so consider this official permission to leave work early.

And if you haven't yet got a book, don't worry, there's still time! Just pop into your nearest indie bookshop on the way!

First book of the day was "Project Hail Mary".

We've definitely talked about this before, but I don't think I can undersell how amazing this book is. - Michael
