It’d be nice to watch the last 22km, but iPlayer coverage seems to disappear at that point only to reappear after the finish. Anyone know where it goes, after Day 8 Extra Daytime?

Private renting has increased 14% since the last census. An ever expanding, ever more expensive rental sector - where houses are seen as sources of profit instead of homes - is not the answer to our housing emergency. We need more social housing @Shelter bbc.com/news/business-642098…

Wrote this for @theipaper. Swear to god, the patronising assumption that poor folk haven't spent their whole life learning how to live cheaply & somehow need *educating* on this will be my personal death...you can't cut back where there's nothing to cut. inews.co.uk/opinion/feeding-…

You can now see Thames Water's sewer overflows in real-time. Check if sewage is being discharged to a river in your park. It's a good step, much better than yearly lists of data. It increases accountability & shows the true performance of infrastructure. thameswater.co.uk/edm-map

Although this piece is wonderful and hits the nail firmly on the head in its own right, it’s not by #Banksy. It’s actually by Iranian artist Bozorgmehr Hoseinpour (2020). Original post: x.com/Bozorgmehr_h/status/13…
