With the rapid deterioration of the Russia/Ukraine situation, you’re going to hear a lot about SWIFT in the coming days… Here’s a quick breakdown of what it is and why it matters:

Cpt Hall's #PledgeofAllegiance in #AmericanSignLanguage on #InaugurationDay has rightfully seized our attention. In this thread, I want to analyse where this came from, what we can learn from it, and what we should NOT learn from it. Read more on this longish THREAD 1/20

City Hall is looking for an additional 50 room central London hotel which we can block book for 12 weeks to house rough sleepers showing symptoms of #covid19. We’d pay for rooms plus full deep clean at end of thee period. If you can help pls let me know - [email protected]
This is hugely important action and absolutely vital for the health of rough sleepers, who are some of the most vulnerable Londoners #covid19

It is great to see our managers @TheLyonsDen and @gavmorris going in to bat so vigorously for ABC journalists (as they have for me in other circumstances) & keeping public informed on developments to boot. It's chilling time for freedom of the press, but the ABC is not cowed.
And so it’s off into the night for the six AFP officers. For nine hours they’ve searched through ABC emails and documents. I think there’s a big question for the Australian public: is this what a free press looks like? Thank you all for your interest today. Regards, JL.

Easy to understand read here on franking credits by @profholden "What’s relevant here is that Labor wants to undo a Howard government innovation that sends cheques to people fortunate enough to receive income from shares and not pay tax. It exists nowhere else in the world"

So having analysed the names of 20,000-odd councillors I was going to do a map showing the most common local politicians' names in different places. Only problem is you end up with A GREAT BIG MAP OF JOHN

Can’t stand the joy some take in ‘checking’ how working class someone is. If you think a parent retiring in a good job wipes out years of money probs or no qualificatns etc, you don’t get how life or class works. That’s the thing about the w/c. We don’t stay in our little boxes.

Great to hear @jamesmurray_ldn #5050dinner emphatically put the era of #all male panels in the past. His leadership in refusing to speak at non-representative events has been crucial in driving change across #RealEstate sector to understand value of #diversity #VisibilityMatters

Such an important article and thread on #Proptech adoption. Norges Bank closing their RE desk shows there is a need for efficiency but not enough Proptech companies have a deep understanding of these barriers to entry.
Nails it, from ⁦⁦⁦@m_beckerman⁩. Real estate is physical and distributed, has long capital planning and transactional cycles, and a complex decision-making stack. Adoption at scale is the eternal challenge of #PropTech @DiscoverCREtech⁩ cretech.com/michael-beckerma…
