The cogs are still turning in my attempt to put #SquareChapelArts (Halifax) back on its feet. 🙏🏻
I’m flabbergasted by the offers of support & levels of backing I’m receiving.
What sort of society are we if we fail to champion the arts & culture?
Thanks, you good people.
Stay tuned!

MPs call for emergency legislation for public control of Thames Water, let govt restore it and resell.

Hedge funds want to takeover TW, want exemption from penalties for breaking laws.

Neither will do.

Trump claims Canada joining the EU is a “hostile act”

He calls the Prime Minister “Governor”.

He posts maps that show Canada as the 51st State.

He’s renamed Lake Ontario “Lake America”.

Every one of these things is a hostile act.

Carney joining the EU is good leadership.

From this Sunday, Chiltern passengers will travel on services back in public hands.

Each step in renationalising the railway enables us to tackle what people care about most – better and more reliable services.

We're building a railway that puts passengers, not profit first.
