absolutely disgraceful. they're treating nature like a sewer. #EndSewagePollution NOW!
‘90% rain’ yeah…”SWW sewage discharge this morning at StAgnes. Unbelievable. A dad just got out this arvo and said to his 3 year old ‘Best wash the sewage off…’ It is still stinking. No way am I surfing in that.

Why is @RIBAComps promoting exploitative guff like this?
No project at the end of it & total cost to practices entering will be orders of magnitude greater than £50k prize pot.
Who is benefiting from this exercise?
How much is @RIBA being paid to run it?

Wow ... truly impressive.
Strength does not just exist in the sheer might of an army but also in the minds & hearts of the free. A "forever" people.
“How long do you think you can hold out?”
“Forever.”

Storm Eunice really had it in for early 2000s architecture! The Laban Centre (2003), Millennium Dome (2000) & de la Warr bandstand (2001) all battered to buggery. – at Lambeth, London

The Department of Health insists it paid £600m to an interior design company for PPE. The money is nowhere to be seen in the firm’s accounts. They won’t answer the Eye’s questions. So where’s the money gone? Full story in the brand new Private Eye, out today.

So you can lie and still be PM, but if you tell the truth you get thrown out of the Commons? What a quaint system.

Dear @BorisJohnson. Please could you explain why there is a need to increase National Insurance contributions "to fund the NHS" when you claimed the NHS would get £350m per week in Brexit savings?

Toby Carr was one of my very first students when I started teaching at the B.
His M.Arch work was a testament to his quirky intelligence and abundant making and crafting skills. He will be sadly missed.

Here is a beautiful set of tributes to Toby Carr from the members of @sw_architects - a fitting testament to an extraordinary person (and to the collective love of the practice) swarch.co.uk/news/toby-carr/
