EG Like Sunday Morning: Office policies and the gestation periods of housing ministers
Listen now
Description
Jess Harrold is joined by deputy editor Tim Burke and senior writer Piers Wehner to round up the week in real estate. Burke discusses his EG Interview with Tim Roberts, chief executive of Henry Boot, about the developer’s first HQ move in almost a century – and addresses the state of the London office market, with insights of optimism from British Land’s chief executive, Simon Carter. Wehner outlines Landsec's £1bn disposal strategy and how it plans to boost its development pipeline, and turns his attention to the government reshuffle, the return of Lee Rowley, and his inventive way of charting the lengths of tenure of housing ministers. Burke offers an update on WeWork, and how rivals are eyeing its sites that might become available, plus his thoughts on what might come next. Along the way, the discussion takes in Snoop Dogg, John Cleese, the Two Ronnies and music for funerals - but with the latter in mind, what track will Burke add to the EGLSM Certified Bangers playlist? https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0pBand693O5IhhaScVM6uZ
