Mud all down my back. Had to strip off and put everything in the wash. I found it funny. Might have felt differently if I’d landed on my face!

Very cool!! I did some work in Barnsley when I was at the University of Huddersfield and we had a campus there some time ago. Worked with some wonderful people in local government and local organisations. This looks like it has the potential to be something special and I’m going to watch closely.

Aha! We’ve developed an alternative Stage 2. Initiate the lean ourselves. Stroke ears. Lull into false sense of security. Stage 3 set off in the direction that originally caused the toe planting. Doesn’t always work but surprisingly high success rate for us!

I so know the feeling when they plant their toes and you know there’s no moving them. And the standing next to them offering a lean until they do.

You and me both. Does that mean we have to fight each other? Mashed potato with butter or gravy. I’m not fussy.

Devolution dividend: staff matter too. A huge contrast to DfE/Jacqui Smith approach in Tuesday's testimony. 3/3
