Sigh. “Free speech absolutist” @elonmusk has just blocked Substack links on Twitter from being RT'd, liked, or bookmarked. Unbelievably stupid move, for reasons I will explain. (Please RT, like, and bookmark the shit out of this tweet, so he's forced to read this goddamn🧵...)

Quite a common question I get on this very website is "why trams not buses?" and the answer is, I think, quite simple. Trams are cheaper to run. Not to build, oh they cost lots and lots and lots to build, but once you've built them, they can actually make money.

The places we are born, educated and work in can have a profound bearing on our living standards. So how do people experience their local areas and want them to change? In April we ran 4 focus groups in Yorkshire and the Humber to explore these questions..🧵

As I made clear yesterday, the package of measures introduced yesterday by Chancellor Rishi Sunak failed to address the inflation issues he needed to address at this moment. What I did not address was whether it was inflationary in itself.
