Clewée

Hi @mrdanwalker - two friends of mine are organising a charity golf auction to raise money for nhscharitiestogether.co.uk. I was wondering whether you could give us a shout out on Twitter or BBC Breakfast? Please DM me for details.

When even President Macron says supply chains will have to become more French, from food to pharma, then you know globalisation will be in serious retreat in 2020s.

This comment from an anonymous FT reader offers a succinct and simplifying framework for how to think about C-19 and the government's response to it.

@RosamundUrwin @juliangough Moronic tweet from someone who couldn’t know less about the sport and crucially wouldn’t want to bother to find out

Will never forget @juliangough ‘s unimprovable description of golf as a game where the object is to keep poor people off a giant lawn.

Rather than closing big parks so more people end up packed into the smaller parks, how about reclaiming green space in London, like this enormous, empty golf course? Turn the golf courses into exercise spots. More green space for everyone, social distancing made easier.

@DUGC2s Masters stuff fella

@AlexClewett What you writing Clew?

Just found myself throwing a tennis ball against a wall as a break from writing and now worrying I’m turning into Jack Nicholson in the shining #cabinfever

One of the most unappealing aspects of the current crisis is the judgmental censoriousness we’re seeing on here and in more everyday life. I went past several parks today. Everyone I saw was enjoying them responsibly. Not everyone is lucky enough to have a big house and garden.

Last season’s two Champions League finalists - who between them announced combined profits of £129m for 2018/19 - now using a Government scheme to pay 80 per cent of staff’s wage just four weeks into a shutdown. It’s completely indefensible.

Hey @Channel4 if this tweet gets 20,000 retweets, will you air the full 2005 Ashes Series?

All pubs, restaurants and cafes will be able to offer takeaway and delivery services if they wish. I’m relaxing the planning rules to help businesses adapt and support individuals who are staying at home as a result of #coronavirus

Here’s a thread to explain a little more 👇 A decade ago, in June 2009, I was appointed Health Secretary by Gordon Brown. Days later WHO declared a global pandemic. Swine flu was never as serious as the current situation. But, from where I was standing, it felt pretty scary ...

Correct decision. I'm not sure how you can coordinate a global response to a pandemic AND tour the UK at the same time.

The last sentence has finished me

@Luey1878_ @MundialMag Bit of you this @bnhndr

@JonnyAnstead @PlanningShit Goldsmith Street, Norwich and Marmalade Lane, Cambridge have both won awards recently

I’m looking for good examples of car-free or low-car housing developments (preferably in the UK). Any suggestions please?

Today’s site visit. Wonder what Brian Potter would make of our public realm proposals...

@tomrob3rts Sheffield, Newcastle, Lime Street and the immediate vicinity around King’s Cross all good
