Here's a policy by @samjknights from our 'Ministry of Imagination Manifesto', just published at robhopkins.net/2024/04/15/mi…. It's just one of 600+ policies infused with imagination in a year desperate for more of the same. Dive deep, and please share.

As a society, we need to move away from the idea that one person (read man) is going to come into power and change things. No matter how good they are actually. Communities need to come together to decide what’s best for them. Collective decision making now.

We need radical imaginations for thriving, just, healthy & dignifying futures. The future is already being engineered by those in power. Join us in convo w/ powerful visionary on how we practically build new & radical alternatives, otherwise we keep re-creating oppression. Pls RT
As we navigate interconnecting systems of oppression, imagination is an essential tool for liberatory practice. We will focus on the radical potential of experimentation, exploring cultural strategy; how artistic labour offers us the power to shift culture.

Today people in Birmingham came together to say "Enough is Enough". Four people have been killed on our roads in the last month, two of whom have been children. Last week a child and their older sibling were run over on their way to school. @for_birmingham is demanding action

"One person cannot do much; a movement can topple a regime. We are sadly lacking stories in which collective actions or patient determination of organisers is what changes the world."

The census 2021 data for car ownership is live!
In some parts of GM, over 50% of households do not have access to a car
It's vital we set policy going forward for them

This planet is so full of beautiful life. We don't have to accept fossil fuel companies destroying it.
