Woo hoo. First time ever I got Wordle in one. Probably the only time

Too many smart meters are broken. After we've all, collectively, spent over £10bn on them, it isn't good enough. I sent this open letter to @Ed_Miliband the new Secretary of State for energy today...

1/17 I've just been writing a piece on the funding of councils and planning departments as part of our election series. It's really quite a shocker - and quite underestimated as a blockage in housing supply.

Great night at the #Womeninhousingawards host @dianemodahl was fantastic and what inspiring women all round

The insanity of Glasgow 🫠 this kinda stupidity is just normal now

There's a huge amount going on to raise competence across the built environment - its all here.

@RoryOlcayto Great ideas Rory hope some of it comes off

[Rory Olcayto @RoryOlcayto]

Tbh it’s more a plea - with some ideas. Lots of gaps to fill, I know. But something to talk about. Have a read of the attached pdf of my RIAS speech if you can. Goes into the ideas a bit more…

[Rory Olcayto @RoryOlcayto]

What an absolutely brilliant facade this fine building has…right? Gorgeous, Glasgow. Gorgeous. Please don’t knock it down in wunny yer confused huffs 🥴
