Social housing in London by Levitt Bernstein

Built to Passivhaus standards so energy bills will be next to nothing. Ground floor homes have a front and back garden, and apartments above are dual aspect.

Windows feel a bit small, but lots to love!

Sensational, spiky and doomed: we’re at Minster Court. On @grindrod.bsky.social’s podcast, Monstrosities Mon Amour, I talk about Minster Court and PoMo. Grim plans are afoot to destroy this gem and build new offices in the International Monied Wherever style.

NEWS // β€˜The Brutalist church above a Tesco’: Broadmead Baptist Church in Bristol has been Grade II listed, thanks to support from C20 Society.
Designed by architect Ronald H Sims and built 1967-69, its a highly unusual example of post-war church architecture.

Starmer said his government would be like New Labour's 'Clause IV on steroids.'

Seems Streeting's take on this is NHS PFI version 2.

But just like steroids, any plans for privatisation in the NHS should come with a health warning: they may cause dangerous side effects.

_Conservative peer Lord True...said the legislation risked β€œdestabilising” the House of Lords with β€œfar-reaching consequences”, claiming that the 26 seats reserved for Church of England bishops would be the next to be abolished._

Good. More separation of church and state is only a good thing.

Planning reforms will end development chaos, says Angela Rayner Officials will be able to rubberstamp development plans without local authority permission under the changes.

The biggest obstacle to building more homes (that people can actually afford - that part always gets left out!) is not council planning committees.

It's the systematic underfunding and weakening of local authorities, and Labour is to blame just as much as the Tories.
