December 2024 Please note – most likely I will not be running again for Mayor in 2025 but if I did it would still be with this platform and I encourage anyone else who puts their name forward to consider using the ideas. I hope someone very progressive believing in strong public services, high taxes on the rich, and high minimum wages, steps up. Time for building a kind economy.

The biggest hurdle we face in being able to act to deal with the climate emergency is the problem of big money in politics. Big money donation’s political advertising is pressing its heavy knee into the throat of our democracy.
This year we experienced the most extreme barrage of political campaign advertising the people of our city have ever seen.
The advertising is being used to elect governments that put profits before people and the environment. Please speak up and discuss what we can do to change this.
