⏰ Yesterday’s ‘Houses of Carliament’ event for our Large Vehicle Levy was a great success, with strong engagement from MPs and fellow advocates.
💰 The proposed levy aims to generate approximately £2 bill annually by ensuring heavier vehicles pay their fair share of road taxes.

We'll explore the issue of increasing vehicle size - by displaying 3 contrasting vehicles outside Parliament. We'll also show how a Large Vehicle Levy can raise 2 billion for public services 💰

Great to be part of this vital enquiry on flood resilience.
This was one of my favourite reports I worked on at @thefabians.bsky.social. Climate adaptation (alongside critical action to meet emissions targets) is key to ensuring the most vulnerable are protected from suffering the worst impacts.

Self-employed workers without sick pay are 'illness away from financial ruin'
A new report out urges the government to introduce a sickness insurance system for the self-employed, and end the “threadbare support system” that leaves them without security

The spending review commits to £4.2 billion to build and maintain defences, which is welcome.
But research shows that more than £1.5 billion a year is likely needed to increase flood resilience in England 🧵
