Good news for London bus drivers. Well done to everyone who took action to make this happen. With ever hotter summers, cooling for passengers will be needed on all public transport too. Making sure that drivers are healthy and safe is a good first step. www.standard.co.uk/news/politic...

When Zipcar closed down its operations in the UK we moved quickly to secure extended car club coverage from Enterprise. That’s good news for the many Hounslow residents who don’t have access to residential parking, can’t afford or don’t want to own a car, or don’t require use of a car every day.

I didn’t want to get into it yesterday because it’s not, as I set out, relevant to this tragic case. But successive governments’ post-2020 approach to ethnic disparities is in my view bad and does send policy down blind alleys:
ft.com
Disparities between ethnic groups are not always cause for alarm
Different outcomes merit investigation, but we should not assume reducing the gaps is desirable or necessary
