Being Mayor of Liverpool has been the greatest honour of my life. It’s a role I never aspired to, but I stepped up during an incredibly difficult time for our city. For the remainder of my term, I'll be delivering transformations to services to set a balanced budget.

As you might have read, Twitter’s Curation team - which I led - was disbanded last week. 🧵 The multilingual team, located in 9 cities, provided content intelligence for ML-driven products, trends context and highlighted credible content when Twitter really needed it.

“Housing, and the basic needs of society, should never have been left to the marketplace.” @PresidentIRL is one of the only public figures anywhere in the West prepared to speak this obvious truth.

Most people assume that financial wealth creates happiness. I used to see people with money and assume everything in their life must be amazing. I was wrong. Money is scientifically correlated with happiness—but only up to a baseline level of life that's lower than you think.
