Useful advice from Jeremy Clarkson on how to iron out any difficulties you might have with your planning application: theguardian.com/media/2024/apr…
Who, remarkable as it seems now, visited Jarrow while meeting Tyneside industrialists in 1877. I wrote about how the visit, though, came to be overshadowed by a local tragedy shieldsgazette.com/heritage-and-r…

You think housing prices will keep going up because you've seen it all your life. But this is a historic anomaly that is likely to reverse soon: Prices might start shrinking in many places. This thread is the case against investing in housing:
Andy, your housing targets a) were set by the local authorities & b) are nowhere near what is needed with no process in place to address unmet needs. You can't wear the fact you don't have any planning powers like a badge of honour & take all the credit for planning decisions

Roy Keane’s take on Anthony Gordon’s move to Newcastle is quality 😂
‘Economics might be dismal, but it’s not really a science, even though it continues to advertise itself as one.’ | Working-class hero • Inside Story insidestory.org.au/working-class-…
The rapid making and unmaking of the Ben Houchen myth is astonishing and a metaphor for levelling up. Hubris and nemesis, a Greek tragedy. Somebody should write a play or an ITV1 prime time drama.
The rapid making and unmaking of the Ben Houchen myth is astonishing and a metaphor for levelling up. Hubris and nemesis, a Greek tragedy. Somebody should write a play or an ITV1 prime time drama.
Steve Gibson, owner of Middlesbrough FC, and Paul Booth, former chair of SABIC UK, former members of the board that founded Teesworks, call Ben Houchen “totally incompetent” and call for a deal struck three months after they were sacked to be renegotiated: on.ft.com/4aQopjX
My favourite graph in the fantastic FT piece on how levelling up money is far too small, hasn't arrived yet, and even where it has, often hasn't got spent is this one,... showing that Richmondshire (Rishi Sunak is an MP) has done best* from levelling up in Yorkshire.
Pep’s a genius in charge of some of the best players of all time, who routinely do things that are technically incredible. Yet it’s all so totally & utterly joyless. Soulless, boring football
The committee backed the findings of the independent review into the project, which made 28 recommendations. NAO probe would “address the gravity and breadth” of the concerns raised by the review and “extend scrutiny beyond the limited remit” it had been given, it said
Steve Gibson talks Teesworks, the 90/10 deal and why he believes Ben Houchen must go tinyurl.com/mr2m59t2
The Green Party candidate who pulled out of the Tees Valley mayoral election has told me she did it because she doesn't want to split the progressive vote and allow Ben Houchen to win. yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/politics/…
'How would you suddenly wake up and decide all of what you've got, all that everyone worked for, you're just going to give it away?' gazettelive.co.uk/news/teesside-…
Decision to hand over 90% ownership of Teesworks to private partners was "stupid" & "unforgivable". Gibson accused Houchen of being "dangerous" for the economic wellbeing of the Tees Valley. "He's given away 100’s of millions without any explanation." gazettelive.co.uk/news/teesside-…
Cross-party business select committee says Gove “must” send National Audit Office into Teesworks to “assure the public taxpayers’ money has been disbursed appropriately and legally” on.ft.com/4aS05OD
I like that the biggest publicly funded regeneration project in the country cannot even reveal even one word of a short summary of its progress
The cross party report calls the Tees Valley Review "limited". Acknowledging the flagship status of the Tees freeport it says the NAO must be used "to assure the public" money has been spent "appropriately and legally". yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/politics/…
A Parliamentary report about freeports published today tells Michael Gove he must direct the National Audit Office to “scrutinise the expenditure of public funds” associated with Teesworks. yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/politics/…

So, in July i'll be walking through over 30 of Durham's Category D villages - settlements which sat at the bottom of the pile in the county's strategic planning and deemed not worthy of future investment. Many are extinct today. 🧵
Usual thoughtful piece. Starmer can try to spin out his honeymoon by (correctly) blaming the Tories for the state of the country but will have to tackle the multiple problems we face both to keep his new voters (and their MPs) happy and to maintain faith in politics.
It's a fair question. Labour's policies in office, however, will be determined not just by Starmer's instincts but by reality and incentives, and these could push him leftwards, as I said here: stumblingandmumbling.typepad.com/stumbling_and_…

Sick leave is a complete irrelevance and a terrible focus for policy (especially as the proposal is to add more bureaucracy and cost into the system.) There is an issue with rising long-term disability but not one that will be solved by making people's lives more miserable.
The sick leave culture trope is popular, scroungers etc but appears to have little basis in reality compared to every other European country…. #evidencematters
