J’ai eu l’honneur de présider le jury « Montée de la mer et risques littoraux » dans le cadre de la Cérémonie Solennelle de Remise des Prix de la Fondation Jacques Rougerie.
Un moment fort pour saluer la créativité des jeunes architectes et concepteurs engagés face aux défis climatiques majeurs.

Education, health and care plans have been blamed for an unsustainable rise in special educational needs in schools, but would scrapping or limiting these plans fix the problem?

Nigel Farage has spent £1m taking out adverts in the papers to distract from the Nathan Gill Russian bribe scandal.
We can't let him buy himself out of this. We need an investigation into Russian influence in our politics.

Powerful morning of gut-punching presentations on true gravity of #climate & nature emergency from leading scientists speaking at packed #nationalemergencybriefing. Overwhelmingly clear we can only make the necessary green transition if social justice & equity are at its heart

Good morning, while everyone is waiting for the budget to be announced it’s a good time to say that immigration is a source of prosperity for the UK and painting Britain as a hostile state is sabotaging the country. Thanks!
