At 9.30am & 8.45pm on Weds I'll be on radio 4, talking about the unexamined nuances of involving care experienced young people in policymaking. I'm going to listen to myself (cos R4❤️), which will be super weird. Join me? #CEP #livedexperience #policy

I do stand up comedy now. If you'd like to see me in my first show - covering topics such as drugs and ageing, neurodivergence and the class struggle, and being gay but sleeping with men anyway - I'm performing in Islington next Sat afternoon. I won't be taking questions on this.

This is the best public facing piece I've seen on extreme weather - balanced reporting on the science, and a realistic message of hope. https://t.co/Rj044Migmi

A brain dump on #governance and how we create #knowledge prompted by an invitation onto Radio 4 to talk about social care #policymaking and a conference on #Sustainability. I'd love to get views on some/all of it - might draft it again with more thought. https://t.co/TXe54QSNaf

Me: "the wind farm looks beautiful" Local man: *looks at me like I've just kicked a child in the face* In other news I've been accepted onto a MSc in Sustainability and Behaviour Change at the Centre for Alternative Technology - maybe people there will see beauty in this too.😂❤️

Just chilling in a highly modern cafe enjoying being rich while I reflect on the brilliance and hypocracy of William Morris, who lived the impossible ask of being a socialist in a capitalist society. First day off in a while. #bestlife #timetobreathe

In January, we were told by the DfE that care experience would not be a protected characteristic. Today, 45 councils have passed this motion. Every day, the campaign is building momentum. This is all down to the great work of @TerryGalloway #changeiscoming Children in care are
