As I discussed in the interview, these are the 5 STEPS TO MAKING BETTER CITIES I’ve been using for many years, and eventually wrote about in @fastcompany.com. Too many cities are stuck in Step 2 (doing the wrong things better), and have to really be careful in Step 4 (doing the right things badly).

At the very least @tracybrabinmayorwy.bsky.social needs to air how furious she is in public to stand as a Burnham figure operating separately from national government or risk being seen as too connected to it and therefore week on local issues.

That's here: www.westyorks-ca.gov.uk/news/new-par...

The official release is best, as what it actually says is "central government has taken the project off the devolved authority and put all of our staff working on it out to pasture" which alongside the defacto cancellation (that's exactly what this is) suggests this is a mess.

What's more interesting here is how furious a source or two of mine says Brabin was and is with Alexander. I need all of that juice in my ears, because if I was her I'd instantly defect to the Greens. This is an utter betrayal that isn't dampened by its inevitability.

Best one I had was this www.mobilephonemuseum.com/phone-detail...

I was obsessed with phones with full keyboards. I think my 5510 purchase was a result of marketing success from ‘The Tone’ edition of Nokia Game en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_G...
