That's why I have launched my Bill consultation in
@ScotParl
to establish Overdose Prevention Centres.

But they do: collectively universities lose £1bn a year teaching home students and £5 bn a year on research which is not fully funded. The business model is a result of political decisions over a decade of frozen funding for UK students.

: Funny to stumble across a 1988 edition of the Glaswegian with a column about the Italian Centre: “…the first centre of its type in Europe” Heady days when Glasgow set the pace! Where are the Classical House developers of today to do the equivalent 🤔?

Interest from govts in mission-oriented economic policy is growing, but it requires more than just relabelling institutions & policies: it requires fundamental changes that align social, environmental & economic goals.

Austerity’s children – those born after 2010 – now account for 3.4m of Britain’s 4.3m children in poverty, with an extra 100k children pushed into poverty every year.
The damage to them runs deep and will have devastating consequences.
