I asked a Housing Industry expert what did they think about @sinnfeinireland @EOBroin’s A Home of Your Own plan. “They did it. They’ve cracked it” was the simple no-bullshit reply. Make up your own mind 👇 Apple: podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcas… Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/01u…

Today's poll shows that I have a real chance of winning a seat in Midlands North-West. Being a leading progressive candidate, and with transfers & continued positive momentum, this is a real possibility. My messages are connecting with people #Hearne4homes #Hearne4Europe

Steve Beresford should be hoisted on our shoulders and paraded through the streets whilst people play toy pianos, and mechanical beetles scatter from his pockets. If you’re able please help him out. Music is community. Steve is music. gofund.me/39301cf6

mentioning this again - please rt or ask @HauserWirth @ArtReview_ why they set this arbitrary age barrier - one that particularly affects primary carers of children whose abillity to take residencies is reduced during a child's early years (UK average first motherhood is age 29)
this opportunity is not even for 'emerging' or 'new' writers. the under 35 age restriction appears to have no rationale at all, even the false one of young=new
