We're freezing alcohol duty to August 2024.
This takes 3p off the duty cost of an average pint of beer – saving pubs & our alcohol sector thousands in funds that they’ll be able to reinvest into their businesses.

I’ve looked back at the presentations I’ve given to (to date) 73 trustee boards / senior management team / staff meetings of @alva_uk members over the last 15 months. The business updates change from month to month as the recovery improves but the principles of success don’t: 1/5 – at Kensington, London

Since we got going, we've been asked one question more than any other. How do citizens' assemblies actually work? So we've created Six Steps for a Citizens' Assembly. We hope by opening up citizen-led decision-making processes more people will try them citizensinpower.com/all-reso…

#UK: Despite ruling @carolecadwalla's reporting was in the public interest, the appeal court orders her to pay £1M in libel case. The decision has a chilling effect on journalism in the UK. #CFWIJ condemns the ruling and calls on the gov to immediately revise its libel laws.

I would be really grateful if @guardian @ObserverUK & @TEDTalks made a comment on this ruling. Any comment.
It has huge ramifications for UK journalism. And some basic solidarity from the organisations who published the work would go a long way.
Thank you.

NOPE. Repeat after me for the people in the back: Quality and Community are not a binary. To stay relevant you need both TOGETHER. theguardian.com/commentisfre…
Interesting article, interesting btl comments. Much to agree with, as much to disagree with... But worth emphasising that decreases in recent years of arts subsidies (via ACE, via local authorities etc) were / are a choice. theguardian.com/commentisfre…
