…and I’m not just talking about the mega-wealthy, I mean even just the moderately rich. But many councils are fearful of being seen to actively help the rich, so they conflate their #climateemergency work with work they are (often already) doing on tackling #FuelPoverty.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying for one minute that councils should abandon efforts to tackle #FuelPoverty. That’s a social ill that should have been dealt with long ago and is a legacy of the UK’s largely crappy housing stock.

THREAD: The Constitution of Pakistan envisages a three tiered federation; this was asserted by the Supreme Court of Pakistan in its judgement in the local government restoration case. 1/5
The discussions on centralizing tendencies of political governments tend to ignore our lopsided administrative structure. We can’t have a healthy federation without administrative autonomy in every tier of government. 2/5
Currently, the federal service dominates all three tiers of government and their power and influence increases in lower tiers (provincial and municipal). 3/5
#LOTI in collaboration with @ONS @ONSdigital to identify a common problem that London boroughs face that could benefit from #collaboration. We'll work together to develop a solution that demonstrates the value of #DataScience within London’s #LocalGovernment.
In the first exercise, #DataScientists & #DataAnalysts in London boroughs have been invited to share what skills they'd like to improve through this training opportunity in collaboration with @ONS @ONSdigital

Today's week two of the Law In Rural America seminar, and we're discussing the challenges and scope of rural #LocalGovernment. #RuralLaw 1/
Up first, we’re reading a chapter of Lane Lancaster’s Government in Rural America (2d ed. 1952). He predicted that "[i]n another generation it is quite probable that there will be no distinctive subject matter for a book on rural government." (Yikes!) 2/
(Do other law faculty out there know of other textbooks/casebooks that focus specifically on rural law? Maybe @RichSchragger or @lisareneepruitt?) 3/
