Re-reading Williams & Wharf's introduction to @SpacePolity special issue on Drugs, law, people, place and the state: ongoing regulation, resistance and change for something new I'm writing and I'm reminded just how good the entire SI is.

Some news! My upcoming book now has a cover, and I couldn't be more excited about it. Thirst should come out with Verso Books within the first half of 2024. Feel free to drop me a message if you're interested in learning more about the book (and potential translations). Looking forward to hearing from you!

It’s taken me YEARS to decipher the met office rain % scale for Manchester. 10-20% low, 30-40% crapshoot, 50% and above most definitely yes.

A little article I co-wrote last year and am rather proud of.

Just came across it again and wanted to toot about it.

Green Mobility is a policy choice - Lëtzebuerger Gemengen

If the gov't is serious about building a robust economy & sticking to its Decarbonizing Transport plan, it needs to be investing rather than divesting in its rail system. #NetZeroBy2050. A few years old now, Joe Blakey & I wrote about DfT's #DecarbonizingTransport
& on rereading would say this commentary still stands. Particularly in light of the Rail Ticket Office Closures, the #CostOfLivingCrisis & Levelling Up. https://blog.policy.manchester.ac.uk/posts/2021/08/decarbonising-transport-inequality-joined-up-action-and-the-risk-of-technological-optimism/

One of the good things about conferences is they’re spaces to build on work over time. In 2019 I introduced the concept of crisis policy making. This year I expanded on it to think about what it means in the context of urban governance innovation. Original paper here https://acme-journal.org/index.php/acme/article/view/2219
