The UK government have had over 6 months to get ahead of the virus with an effective track and trace system. The only reason we are continuing to endure these appallingly draconian lockdowns is because the government have failed on deliver on track and trace. They own this shit.

Last night we heard from Chloe Jeffries at @ClimateEmergMcr about some of the great work they’ve been doing in Manchester. Their main priority right now is their campaign for a 7th Scrutiny Committee of Manchester City Council – dedicated to Climate Change. Please sign and share! https://twitter.com/ClimateEmergMcr/status/1307699046631366656

If you live, work or study in #Manchester Council's boundaries, pls sign & share the petition.

Manchester City Council faces a budget crisis, but still found 50k to waste on drivel calling itself a "new economic narrative."

AND THEN SIGN & SHARE THE PETITION FOR A SEVENTH SCRUTINY COMMITTEE

@alessioilgreco and @RahelSuess trace the financial web that ties the ongoing lockdown fiasco at MMU with global private equity and ask—what might we do to push back against the financialisation of housing?
