Mick Jagger has signed a petition opposing a plan that would provide affordable homes for at least 190 people because it would spoil his view from the other side of the river We can't afford a system that lets anything from rockstars to rare spiders block new development

California’s insurance crisis is worsening as LA fires push premiums higher and coverage shrinks. Former Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones breaks down the financial burden, policy gaps, and what it means for homeowners.

Disingenuous. Jagger is one of 1,500+ locals (inc. their Labour MP) who oppose this tower because it's out of scale/character with the area, violates the site height limit of 6 storeys & marks yet more egregious private profiteering on London's premier public space, the Thames.

Why is it 50% social housing? Seems unfair on normal people who have to pay market rent.

Bea Johanssen1 year ago

The issue probably isn't that Mick Jagger objects, but that another 29-storey eyesore will be inflicted on London, and for vast profit.

29 stories you mong. I wouldn’t want to look at that where I live, never mind if I had paid millions for a river view.

I live in the area and have written to my local MP, local planning committee, and local ward councillors in support of this development. The only response I was met with was skepticism as to why I'm supporting it as if I was being paid by developers or something 😅

He’s entitled to his opinion & to object if he wishes to. He’s a British resident about to be affected by changes isn’t he? You think he’s not entitled because why exactly?

Alexander Long1 year ago

It's way too tall for the area. No-one would have a problem with this building being redeveloped if it stuck to heights set out in the local plan. The problem is there are rules but developers get greedy and try to break them.

Disgraceful from @MickJagger!

Watch the NYT podcaster's face when he realizes Mick Jagger likes and respects Elon Musk—after initially thinking a new Rolling Stones song lyric was a diss: NYT: "But something's nagging at you, what is it?" Jagger: "No, it's not nagging. It's just that people, they hear one word and they don't really listen to the line. So it's like, 'So Mick Jagger has a go at Elon Musk.' You're not listening to the line, you're only listening to 'Musk,' that's all you're hearing...even though I do call him mad." NYT: "And he's the one person you name on the whole album; no other person! It seems like it would have some importance." Jagger: "He's the only name check...When I wrote that, I was thinking that because of him, they were able to get those astronauts back that were stuck because he provided the transportation because NASA couldn't provide the transportation...Who would you trust to get you into space? Would you trust Boeing or would you trust NASA or would you trust mad mogul Mr. Musk? It's really a side-winding compliment becuase he was the one I remembered was able to do that when the others couldn't." NYT: "Well, that's what you get for using the adjective 'mad.'" Jagger: "And mogul, mogul doesn't always go down well, either." NYT: "No one likes a mogul."

The Social Democrats have a fully costed plan to deliver affordable purchase homes. To ensure these homes are genuinely affordable, we would create supply by supporting not-for-profit housing bodies and local authorities to build them. We would bring vacant homes back into use and ban the bulk purchasing of homes. 🏡 Our housing plan:

Merz: I can't imagine that the next meeting would take place without a ceasefire. So let's work on that and let's try to put pressure on Russia, because the credibility of this efforts, these efforts we are undertaking today are depending on at least a ceasefire from the beginning of the serious negotiations from next step on. So I would like to emphasize this aspect and would like to see a ceasefire from the next meeting, which should be a trilateral meeting wherever it takes place.

Three out of four older people - that's more than 9 million people in the UK - admit their homes are colder than they would like them to be because they can no longer afford to heat them. The research comes from the charity Age UK, which will hand in a petition to 10 Downing Street later, calling on the government to 'Save the Winter Fuel Payment.' The petition has been signed by almost 650,000 people. Polly Bartlett reports.

"I hate Mormons." PEW found that we are one of the least liked religions. But Latter-day Saints also view other religions more favorably than most. At the end of the day I would way rather be associated with a belief system that likes people than one that hates.

JUST IN: New Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson has unveiled a $14.3 billion aid package to Israel that would simultaneously cut $14.3 from the IRS. Some of the money to Israel would fund their new 'Iron Beam' as well as their Iron Dome defense system. The cuts would slash spending from the Democrats' "Inflation Reduction Act" that was signed into law last year. America continues to support sending tens of billions of dollars overseas and we can't even secure our own border. Shameful. Video: USA TODAY

Doug Ford made an announcement, but we have a plan. We have a Made-in-Toronto plan for our city’s waterfront - including a vibrant new neighbourhood in the Port Lands, affordable homes, several new remarkable parks and year-round vision for Exhibition Place. A plan that improves access to the islands, and supports both economic development, and the quality of life of residents from the Scarborough Bluffs to the Humber Bay Shores. It’s been years in the making, and so much of the plan is now becoming a reality. We can’t allow Doug Ford to screw it up. Please click here to send a letter to your elected representatives!
