Who Pays for the Lake District? Tourism is a vital part of the #LakeDistrict economy – but it comes at a cost. It’s time to talk about the problems and the solutions. Read our report here: https://t.co/1IYKJxZmly #WhoPays

If you've been watching @C4Dispatches' investigation into the land owned by Charles and William, you might like my map of the royal estates - the thousands of acres belonging to the Duchies of Cornwall & Lancaster, and the Crown Estate: https://t.co/X48Z2Ge2p4

[Tom Baldwin @TomBaldwin66]

The Times splashes on the views of James Dyson who thinks the Budget is really unfair to people like him. That’s a billionaire who backed Brexit then moved his firm to Singapore - and owns more than 30k acres of UK farmland. But you wouldn’t know any of that from this article.

[Factory International @factoryintl]

It is with deep sadness that our colleague, Jack Thompson, has passed away unexpectedly over the weekend.

Jack was the Technical Director at MIF since its early days and played an instrumental role in shaping Factory International.

Our thoughts are with those closest to Jack.

But wind comes up from the shore:
They shake when the winds roar,
Old bones upon the mountain shake

The words of WB Yeats that Edna O’Brien, who was buried today, requested on her headstone.

[CumbriaWildlifeTrust @cumbriawildlife]

There's such an incredible range of wildlife at @ntsandscalehaws and a lot of it is vulnerable. This is why we've taken a stand against development at nearby Roanhead, due to be discussed by @WandFCouncil in Sept. Have your say here 👇 https://t.co/rycTwAWY6i

[RE Drift @RE_Drift]

Open question;
The owner of this platform is clearly encouraging extreme behaviour if not aligning with those beliefs.
Are we not supporting that position by continuing to use this platform?

This La'al window at St Olaf's seems even more appropriate today - looking out over a local legend's big send off.
