@Sonos If anyone here can recommend an alternative system which actually has good functionality with Audible plus other services I would be grateful as I'm most likely giving up.

@Sonos you have a terrible new app, got rid of the sleep timer and alarms, and my speakers have completely stopped working with Audible. Is that deliberate? Will the audible issue be fixed? If not I need to switch systems so please let me know.

@iD_Mobile_UK are there still issues with the network? I didn't have any access for a long time last week and now the same thing yesterday and today. Is this my phone or is it you?

REAL ESTATE, PLEASE DO YOUR THING.
@MayorofLondon wants empty offices, shops and hotel rooms in which to house homeless people during this freezing weather. @LdnPropAlliance is rallying real estate companies to help. More in @EGPropertyNews (no paywall) egi.co.uk/news/gla-calls…

Oh nothing just an urban planner from overseas praising the excellent quality of new housing and commercial developments in London.
And he’s right. London is a stunning city, and generally (not always) gets new development spot on. Privilege to live here.

I recently spent time in London and visited some new mixed-use developments. I was blown away by what I saw – and there is so much that we can learn in the Toronto context, including the need for better but fewer materials, more colour, less roads and more varied site plans. 🧵

🧵🪡 Yesterday evening a balcony collapsed in onto the street in my apartment building, just 4 years after construction. The building, whose freeholder is Barking & Dagenham Council, was constructed by @BouyguesUK on behalf of @lbbdcouncil ‘s social and affordable housing company, BD Reside. All 414 properties are now considered “unsafe” and we will need to erect scaffolding in across the entire estate to keep ourselves and the public safe. #Leasehold #BuildingSafety #HousingCrisis #LBBD #BarkingAndDagenham #HousingReform

Some harsh reality for Labour's housing ambitions: 'Social housing can’t be created if funding is nothing more than a tax on development – increasingly so as spiraling build costs and requirements such as biodiversity net gain push viability to its limits' housingtoday.co.uk/comment/starme…

@hs_wilkins Unpopular opinion but I actually like it in person. Beautiful tiles on the other side.

Very sadly some of my extended family in Israel have been kidnapped and I have been asked to share them in the hope that the more they are shared the more pressure to release them. The pictures and videos are of 3 year old Yahel, 8 year old Nave, their parents and grandparents.

“Local builders have been squeezed out of the market,” Berry says. “We know that consumer satisfaction is higher for smaller housebuilders, because their reputation depends on building quality homes. The volume builders just turn up, build, then move on.”

I went on crap homes safari to find out why Britain's new-build housing is so rubbish. Here's what I found theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2…

Now here's a rabbit hole... all the culture on one map. Well, a lot of it, anyway londonist.com/london/maps/cu…

@shortthought @Telegraph It's not a good headline but considering the initial advice is to consider whether the development can be adapted in some way to make it more suitable rather than halted altogether... it's not all bad.

If you're getting angry at this @Telegraph piece, STOP!
We've been given an insight into how & why NIMBYs are harming the prosperity of the nation. They have exposed themselves because the chance of fame was too enticing!
We've been handed an opportunity!

🔺Investigation: Britain’s homeless children.
I’ve spent time with 2 families in Stockport and London with no where to live, navigating a broken housing system.
At one primary school, half of the pupils are homeless, living in temporary accommodation. itv.com/watch/news/one…
