This is what is annoying me about our COVID response. You try to plan and get ready then you find out that what was said was not as clear as it should be and now you have to change. The first announcement should have had all this clearly set out.

@stocktoncouncil Hi. I think that is a broken link...

[Jacksons. @Jacksons_1876]

I love this photograph of Linzi Pinnegar's kids supporting anti-bullying week with their odd socks on. This was taken just before going to school yesterday and part of @JacksonsLaw_01 'fresh air' week. Our staff are really getting into this challenge! #teamjacksons #freshair

@1MarkPolley Appearing in shot and striking the ball from the edge of the D: pure Scholes.

Some of his late tackles are only just landing now.

@albertnorthmbr Don't ask me. I'm just messing about on Twitter.

@JohnRentoul @BritainThinks @estwebber This is the mean, it would be interesting to see the same chart for the median. It may help demonstrate/disprove that politics is becoming more polarised or just show who has wide, general support.

Now entering lockdown-2, this is the progress of my lockdown office plant.

Also, I have finally put the blinds up to help with the uneven Zoom lighting.

[David Artley @DavidArtley]

I pruned this plant about a week before lockdown. It is now my quarantine gauge.

@JohnRentoul If we do nothing this will all be over by June?

[David Artley @DavidArtley]

@rcuffy This was vividly demonstrated by the announcement that trade talks with the EU were over and all the financial markets collectively scratched their chins and carried on as before.

Which building was this? And where?

"Middlesbrough in the 1970s and 1980s"

@HeritageUnlockd has teamed up with photographer John Severs to publish his photographs of 1970s and 1980s Middlesbrough.

Would you be interested in a photobook featuring these unique photos, a brief history and John's reflections?

[David Artley @DavidArtley]

Can't help it. Have to do it...

Duh, duh, duh, duuuuh, duh-d-d-duuuuuh duuuuuh.

Big fan of a negroni. Not sure I could still stand after a can of the stuff, mind.

...and it was found to generate more for the economy by a factor of two or three (needs checking). Similar arguments are made for the arts.
Is it possible that a shift towards funding and helping could benefit both the welfare-focussed and the economics-focussed?

[David Artley @DavidArtley]

Firstly, I think we should just feed hungry kids.
Secondly, what would the economic effect be? Is it not sending money across the country (in that expense avoided is akin to income)? The poorest would proportionally benefit the most and are most likely to spend that extra...

[David Artley @DavidArtley]

...money (rather than it just adding to the pile). What would the economic effect of that spending be? Especially at a time when we are trying to encourage spending.
I seem to remember it was only after 2008 and austerity that the wider effect of public spending was considered...
