https://t.co/G47q4g2gVB The easy answer is to permit overseas staff to return. There will NEVER be enough UK nationals to fill the gaps left and the increases necessary. Another case of people who voted for Brexit being those who suffer most.

Heavy snow shuts Manchester airport runway https://t.co/bnuQKHhbtQ. So sensible moving London organisations to Manchester. The bad weather capital of the U.K. Strange how Senior managers/directors always seem to need to stay in London.

Facades play possibly the most important role in the overarching sustainable strategy of a building. But Circular Façade Design is still a long way off. Read Arup’s research on Façade Design for the Circular Economy. https://t.co/xhnQtuswAD #footprint2021 #circulareconomy

#DYK LA doesn't actually own any of its streetlights? Instead LA pays for access to light as a service from Signify, who charge the city for light that is delivered by those streetlights. In turn, the data provided by the lights helps LA to make smarter urban lighting decisions.
