Sorry to repeat myself, but you *really* need to know this. Under the government's Public Order Bill, anyone who has protested in the previous 5 years can be forced to "submit to ... being fitted with, or the installation of, any necessary apparatus" to monitor your movements.

Look at this - #NYC โ€œThe City of Yesโ€ paying homeowners to built additional dwelling units in garages, basements, backyards to help mitigate its #housing shortage
โ€œPlus One ADU,โ€ a program in New York City launching today, provides funding to qualified homeowners looking to build backyard cottages, garage studios, attached in-law suites, basement apartments, and attic space conversions. ow.ly/UTS850Qa0oo

Replying to @limebike
@limebike why the sudden unexplained drastic reduction in the zone where bikes can be parked in south London? Causing a nightmare for so many cyclists!

A book on architectural practice in interwar London, by @n_shasore is both a gripping read and highly relevant to todayโ€™s architecture, says Deborah Saunt of @DSDHA #ribajreview ribaj.com/culture/book-revieโ€ฆ

Thanks to members and stakeholders who joined Wednesday's reception welcoming @ShravanJoshi as the @cityoflondon's new Chair of the Planning & Transportation Committee. Thanks @MontaguEvansLLP for hosting and CPA Vice Chair @DeborahSaunt (@DSDHA) for moderating the discussion.
Notting Hillโ€™s Mangrove Restaurant should be recognised! I've just signed this petition. tinyurl.com/5eyybr6y The Mangrove was a hub of black resistance in 1970 and the trial of the Mangrove 9 led to the first Judicial admission of police racism in Britain. Let's save it!
Join our Director of #Inclusion & #Diversity @MarshaRamroop online tomorrow @Letsbuild__โ€™s Letโ€™s Talk- Is Diversity Critical To Saving Our Planet? at 7pm! Purchase your tickets before they sell out! bit.ly/3v0AOPS @NeilPinder5 @DeborahSaunt @J_J_McIntosh
