Athens hotel ordered to demolish top floors blocking Acropolis view

Campaigners ‘overjoyed’ at landmark ruling but say review of planning laws still needed A battle over the right to enjoy uninterrupted views of the Acropolis has resulted in a five-star hotel being ordered to demolish its top two floors, in a landmark ruling hailed by residents of Athens. Owned by Coco-Mat, the Greece-based mattress maker, the hotel — whose “breathtaking terrace” had been its selling point — opened its doors barely a year ago. Citizens enraged about the ten-storey establishment blocking their own views of the citadel took the case to the highest court in the land. Continue reading...

Coronavirus live news: More new cases in China as parts of Europe to ease restrictions

Boris Johnson’s plans for UK labeled vague and divisive; China records new cases in Wuhan and Shulan; New Zealand to move to level 2 restrictions * Bolsonaro attends floating barbecue as Brazil deaths top 10,000 * ‘People feel a bit nervous’: France braces for end of lockdown * Coronavirus latest at a glance * Australian coronavirus updates - live * See all our coronavirus coverage 5.43am BST Earlier I posted coverage of a protest in Australia, where a small group of demonstrators in Melbourne were angry about lockdown restrictions, Bill Gates, and 5G. Australian health authorities are now using social media trying to combat the growing conspiracy theories about the (non-existent) link between the 5G network and Covid-19. COVID-19 does not spread via mobile networks or wireless technology. COVID-19 is spread through contaminated droplets by coughing or sneezing, or by contact with contaminated hands, surfaces or objects. Find the facts: https://t.co/HbdohSPJs3 pic.twitter.com/WolbwTu46m 5.27am BST Four days after many newspapers looked forward to a widespread easing of restrictions on “Magic Monday”, the story was very different following Boris Johnson’s Sunday’s night’s televised address to the nation. “Boris keeps handbrake on”, says the Mail’s front page headline alongside a large picture of the prime minister clenching his fist as he makes a point during the broadcast. It says Johnson set out the “first steps to free Britain”.
