Good report! And fabulous to see so many mentions of swimming pools and leisure centres in the report. Outdoor pools, in particular, have a very important role to play in our wellbeing in a heating world, and we need councils with ambitions on the scale of the councils that built them in 1930s.

1) Hostage Nation indeed. Great title for a great report & response to 'we can't afford it'. I'm so glad someone is making these arguments so well. We can't get this mainstreamed fast enough in the public consciousness. hostagenation.com from @jamiedriscoll.bsky.social @majorityuk.bsky.social

Applies to the US with minor tweaking.
