@jaxtait.bsky.socialPleased to have been re-elected a vice-chair of the @climateappg.bsky.social It’s never been more important to have healthy cross-party dialogue about how we can tackle the climate crisis. Great to meet and plan our next steps last week.
Show PostWell done Green-led Lambeth Council! I remember visiting here with @pete556.bsky.social in 2021(?) when I was @greenparty.org.uk co-leader and he was a local Green councillor campaigning to save the estate. Now he's Cabinet member for Housing and he's followed through and saved it 👏👏👏 Bravo, Pete!
Show PostThe democratic challenge is turning “AI” into specific decisions: which uses get approved, who bears the risks, and who can appeal when automated systems cause harm.
Show PostFour things can be true at once: 1) AI is a very powerful tool. A huge technological advance. 2) It is toxically unpopular. In a democracy, you can't ignore public opinion 3) Like many major technologies, it's dangerous and needs strict government regulation 4) It might have boom and bust cycles.
Show PostGreat news👏 Curbs on street ads for gambling was one of the very first things I asked the Council to do when I was elected MP. With clear evidence that gambling harm is rising, public health action like this is vital and urgent. www.brightonandhovenews.org/2026/10/16/a...
