1/5 This is a fascinating report by @stkaye and @cmorgan_9 from @wearenewlocal

Very interesting Covid response case studies from @MonmouthshireCC, @Pembrokeshire, @RBKingston and others. #BuildBackBetter

The questions I am asking myself are... https://www.newlocal.org.uk/publications/shifting-the-balance/

2/5 Will the enthusiasm in communities to step up and take on responsibilities that might previously have been considered the "job" of the council or other public services continue?

3/5 Will the level of integration across public services and willingness to empower front line workers, often through a "community hub", endure post crisis?

4/5 And finally, a key question the authors themselves ask - will this be enough to tilt the balance away from formal public sector power to community power?

5/5 There are a couple of interviews with council chief execs coming up on the Radical Reformers Podcast where these questions are discussed. @RadRefPod
