Live near Manchester (UK), work on citizen-led/co-op approaches to the energy transition as a way to tackle climate change. Interested in politics, urban design, anarchism, co-ops and football (not necessarily in that order).

A good day out.... but not our day. Tough on the players and staff, but looking forward to next year with some optimism, this season has been quite the ride!
In a move that would scandalise my late nanna, I'm going to London for the day WITHOUT A COAT. It feels like a risk, but sometimes you have to live a little.

This from @luketryl.bsky.social is crucial in the Makerfield By-election. Burnham is running as the 'change candidate', ppl accept Brexit isn't working and are seeking change. In this context the Reform message is "tough, you voted for it, you have to suffer it". Burnham can offer an alternative.
I am a Social Democrat! Most similar to other social democrats, like, erm, Rosa Luxemburg 🤔 findmypolitics.com?e=-95&so=-80...
