Key takeaway from today’s #GrenfellTower report is that only 12% of blocks with ACM aka flammable cladding, has been rectified. After 7 years how can that be remotely right. People still living in potential tinderboxes. The new Govt needs to sort immediately. #socialhousing

@Lees_Martina As always some very good journalism highlighting the scandal of house builders refusing to deal with the cladding crisis. What would be good to see is a positive piece showing how Housing Associations have stepped up to deal with this.

@elliott______ They are not football fans. Disrespectful.

Wembley and Club Wembley are fucking daft. Every time they’re late out from half time or before kick off and it looks awful on telly. Stick them in the gods and give actual fans the seats.

@davidcarlson1 @hotelsdotcom Completely agree. Been a loyal user of hotels.com for years but it will now not tempt my loyalty with such a significant downgrade. I agree, now the time to support hotels directly to help keep them open.

@addy739 @Calderdale @transportgovuk There is a contradiction in your comment. How can you be law abiding while committing a minor offence? I agree the pot holes need doing, but at the same time the standard of driving is appalling with many having no regard for the law. I agree with this move by the council.

@Calderdale @transportgovuk How about you concentrate on fixing all the pot holes rather than trying to steal money from law abiding citizens for minor offences. Half of the yellow boxes if your turning right and don't go in them you block all the traffic and nobody behind you can get through.

We're planning to apply for powers from @transportgovuk to enforce moving traffic offences. These new enforcement powers will enable us to manage specific road locations in Calderdale, helping to improve safety and reduce congestion. Share your views 👉 new.calderdale.gov.uk/streets-and-tr…

@RochdaleCouncil hi. I assume you are going to address this appalling vandalism of the new town hall square?

@GC_Rail What do passengers on the 14.56 service from KX to Bradford that is now terminating at Doncaster do????

@AppleSupport @VodafoneUKBiz just upgraded to 17.1.1 on my iPhone 14 pro max. Call quality is now appalling and cannot use it. Is this a known issue? Are you doing anything to fix it?

@Kwajotweneboa Only way to get that subsidy without any Govt funding is cross subsidy from sales/shared ownership. The real issue is social housing/a home for all is not a priority for this Govt.

@Kwajotweneboa The real problem is lack of funding. Social/affordable - both sub market and so need subsidy from somewhere. Turn your comment on its head and say the 1000 existing homes are in disrepair and at the end of their lives. They need replacing. To do that needs some subsidy.

I have to say. The term ‘affordable housing’ is very ambiguous and open to interpretation and I personally hate it. What people want is a breakdown. Situations where estates of 1000 social homes knocked down with the promise of 1500 affordable homes to be built. Then when you dig deeper you find out: 500 will be social housing and the rest up for sale meaning we lose 500 social homes on developments under this umbrella term of ‘affordable housing’. (That’s just an example)

@insidehousing One of the reasons I have had a career in housing. Enjoy your retirement Carol, although I suspect there will be other plans afoot!

@FionaEndersby Bloody hell, he is a real nasty piece of work. Good on them for making a stand - blokes pitching in now as well.

@kellfired It’s a fair point. No encore and a set short of 90 mins. Still an amazing gig!

Limp Bizkit were so much fun last night in Halifax but the elephant in the room is that the setlist was far too short especially considering they did multiple covers. Couldn’t believe they ended so quickly. Bit disappointing given how expensive it was but was still mad fun.

Last night I attended the best gig I have ever been to. The energy on and off the stage was incredible. All credit to @ThePieceHall team for putting Halifax on the map. What a venue.

@lauren_exa Arena??? You sure.

@NickyChanThomDL @freddurst @limpbizkit @ThePieceHall Probably the best yet! Energy……

@trumanshow___ My thought exactly!
