@Teamgrassroots_ Disgraceful behaviour is far too regular! My 9 year old has been called horrible words by opposition caoches and parents! It needs stop but I think to come from the top! It’s every weekend in the premier league on TV glorifying disgraceful behaviour

[Helen Heward @hewhel]

@CatrionaRiddel1 Complete agree I said this on linked in last night! The planning system is vital to delivery of sustainable development as a whole!

[Helen Heward @hewhel]

@Keir_Starmer @britishchambers Planning reform is often talked about but there needs to be an actual mechanism for “reform”! Properly funded, well resourced, fully staffed planning departments that can actually engage with ALL stakeholders EARLY is key!

[Helen Heward @hewhel]

@CatrionaRiddel1 Genuine planning reform needed to assist LPA officers deliver the service! A reliance upon Extensions to time is masking the problem!

[Helen Heward @hewhel]

@peterproperty extensions of time agreements are being abused by the system! More LPAs should allow the SOS to see how much they are struggling with workload! Maybe then planning departments would be properly funded and resourced!

@jonnye47 It sets such a terrible example! My 8-year old’s team who are learning the game and need coaching had “silent sidelines” no coach or parent input at one of their matches only to watch their hero’s on TV behave like this and see managers screaming at officials

@JBRecycling Congratulation to all!

[Helen Heward @hewhel]

@planitpres @RTPIPlanners @VictoriaRTPI I agree with this unreservedly! I was recently told “planners are the new accountants” nobody wants you at a dinner party?! Why????

[Helen Heward @hewhel]

@theJeremyVine Refreshing to see what a man is wearing causing such debate!

[Helen Heward @hewhel]

@JBRecycling @outdoor_smart I genuinely really enjoyed my tour and found it so interesting!

[Helen Heward @hewhel]

This might explain a few things! I keep banging this drum but all the planning reforms in the world aren’t going to “streamline” the process or fix the problem #planning #funding

[Dr Peter Geraghty FRSA FAcSS FRTPI @planitpres]

Local Authority net expenditure on planning has fallen by 43%, from £844m in 2009/10 to £480m in 2020/21. This amounts to just 0.45% of local government budgets allocated to planning services: https://t.co/zS5cKu4xvc

@Wandoful @_planninghouse when someone asks if I can do a presentation what I say “im not an expert” what I do….

@Feargal_Sharkey @Ofwat @_planninghouse now wondering if it was algae I saw last week?!?💩👀

[Helen Heward @hewhel]

@Psythor My bugbear as a planner is when people call every piece of green space “green belt” it’s so widely used I’ve even heard this from planning professionals do this!

[Helen Heward @hewhel]

@scott_mills Town planners are soooo boring! Also my neighbour has built an extension can I object?!
