Very important line here from @LouHaigh on road safety:
"We treat road safety in a way as if it is somehow a natural accident. If the number of people being killed or seriously injured on our roads, were being killed in any other way, we'd be treating it as a pandemic."

She knew it earlier than most of us and paid a high price for pointing it out. She’s back now and not for a cheap ‚told you so‘.
But to warn us again. That it’s late. But not too late. Rarely say sthg is a must read, but this is.👇 @carolecadwalla theguardian.com/commentisfre…

For some of the more over-excited commentators out there I recommend some... facts:

Really proud and pleased that every speech that Keir Starmer makes about our economic future includes the creative industries as a key driver of our future prosperity and economic growth. And again today.
