  3. @cscipol @eu_sciencechief @jameswilsdon great points raised on #scipol y'day but how will this be taken forward-eg influence gov strategy?

  14. Also Lord Krebs' q not answered-response to gm would've been diff if social science had been deployed to gauge opinion early on. #scipol

  17. One thing that needs to be clear-giving public a voice doesn't mean implementing crazy ideas hence use of multi-criteria. #scipol
  18. @mlbrook point on inclusion was a very good one-eg poorest in society tend to lack a voice. Research needs suitable design. #scipol
