Rail to nowhere - HS2 - the poster child project of a failed British political classIn this week's Lowdown podcast, Nick Cohen talks to author and doyen transport writerChristian Wolmar about the serial UK failed high-speed railway project. HS2 has spiralled to an estimated cost of £87-102 billion pounds due to political fickleness, mismanagement, inefficiency, and excessive environmental requirements. Christian Wolmar, author of "Fast Track: The Extraordinary Story of High-Speed Rail," explains how Treasury interference, lack of coherent government strategy, and environmental concerns (including a notorious £130 million bat tunnel) contributed to the project's catastrophic cost overruns. Nick and Christian compare Britain's failure with successful high-speed rail implementations in Spain, China, and other countries that maintained national strategic vision and better project management. Christian expressed skepticism about current Labour government reforms, noting that Prime Minister Keir Starmer has apparently shown little interest in the Euston station project despite being the local MP.Read all about it! Christian Wolmar Christian Wolmar is an award-winning writer and broadcaster specialising in transport and is the author of a series of books on railway history. He has spent nearly all of his working life as a journalist, and his interest in transport began at The Independent when he was appointed transport correspondent in 1992, a job he did until 1997. Christian's latest book is Fast Track: The Extraordinary Story of High-Speed Rail.Nick Cohen's @NichCohen4 latest Substack column Writing from London on politics and culture from the UK and beyond.

HS2 has started excavation of the final tunnel bore on the 140-mile railway between central London and the West Midlands – the down tunnel from Old Oak Common station in west London towards Euston – HS2's terminus. The tunnel boring machine (TBM) is named Karen after Karen Harrison, one of the first female train drivers in the UK, who drove out of Old Oak Common depot.Best of all, Green Signals was aboard to witness the launch of this, the last of 11 TBM's on the HS2 project.

This episode goes somewhere we didn't plan, and we think that makes it one of our best yet.We sat down with Jarah Euston, co-founder and CEO of WorkWhile, a fast-growing app-based staffing platform connecting 80 million frontline workers with flexible shift opportunities. Jarah grew up in Fresno working retail, got burnt out building software for tech people, and decided to build technology for workers instead. It's a compelling vision and a genuinely interesting conversation about flexibility, AI, and what the future of work could look like for hourly employees.But after that conversation wrapped, we learned that WorkWhile had recently settled a second major lawsuit with the San Francisco City Attorney's office for misclassifying workers as independent contractors. So we spoke with David Chu, the San Francisco City Attorney, and asked for his side of the story.What you'll hear in this episode is both interviews back to back. First, Jarah's perspective on building worker-centered technology, and then David's perspective on what happens when "flexibility" becomes a cover for avoiding worker protections.Together, these two conversations raise a question that feels urgent right now: Is it possible to build a genuinely worker-centered future of work, one with flexibility, innovation, and fair treatment? Or are we just repackaging old inequities in new apps? Visit us at InclusionGeeks.com to stay up to date on all the ways you can make the workplace work for everyone!

Welcome to another Rail Safety Review, and yes, despite the joys of a strep throat and a voice that sounds like it's been dragged through ballast, Dan is back to talk trains.This week we're diving into the chaos that's been brewing recently on the West Coast Main Line—a derailment near Bletchley, a buffer bump at Euston, trees taking down wires, freight trains giving up the ghost, and more disruption than you can shake a track circuit at. Safe to say, it's not been a great run up North.We also get an inside look at the new branding for Signals to Danger, as Dan shares the story behind the podcast's visual overhaul, why now was the right time for a refresh, and what remains unchanged at the heart of the show.

Transport secretary Louise Haigh has signalled the HS2 high-speed line will terminate in central London.She told Times Radio on Tuesday an announcement would be made soon on the controversial under-construction route from Birmingham into the capital - that's expected at the Budget on October 30.There was uncertainty over HS2's final stop amid funding worries and whether it would instead be at Old Oak Common further to the west of London.We're joined by The Standard's political editor Nicholas Cecil to discuss the project - forecast to cost over £66 billion - plus, rail nationalisation plans and government assurances over pensioners' free bus passes.In part two, water companies in England and Wales have been hit with penalties of nearly £158 after regulator Ofwat published its annual performance report into the sector - and they've been told to knock the money off customers' bills.The report revealed firms continue to miss targets on pollution, leaks and customer satisfaction. To find out what this means for consumers and discuss the impact of water privatisation, we're joined by Dr Eleanor Shearer, senior research fellow at the Common Wealth think tank. Hosted on Acast.

In today's podcast we reflect on last year's HS2 north project cancellation and, one year one, explore what lessons might be learnt for future major project delivery as we move into the Starmer government era.Now, I have been writing about infrastructure projects for 30 years and it seems that when you look back, one consistent theme constantly crops up – the delivery of major infrastructure projects is troublesome to say the least. As an industry we continuously over-promise when it comes to budgets and programme and under-deliver when it comes to social, economic and environmental outcomes. I'm thinking Jubilee Line Extension, Heathrow T5, Channel Rail Link, Crossrail – all fantastic assets today, but the delivery process has left the industry's reputation in the eyes of the public and politicians in tatters. In fact, according to book “How Big Things Get Done” by Flyvbjerg and Gadner, 99.5% of major projects worldwide are over budget, over time and fail to deliver their expected benefits.So when then Prime Minister Rishi Sunak announced to the Conservative Party Conference in October 2023 that phase 2 of the HS2 project beyond the West Midlands would be cancelled and replaced with “Network North”, a £36bn hastily thrown together hotch potch of transport projects, it was hardly a surprise.HS2, said Sunak. “is a project whose costs have more than doubled, which has been repeatedly delayed and it is not scheduled to reach Manchester for almost two decades… … and for which the economic case has massively weakened with the changes to business travel post Covid.”  Much disappointment and derision followed. HS2 will now run only from London to Birmingham, with the Oak Common to Euston link on hold until a private sector backed solution can be found. The industry's reputation for delivery sent once again into the bin.I say again because this is not the first example of politically driven descoping as politicians run out of patience waiting for a ribbon to cut. Think the Channel Tunnel in the 1970s, the Crossrail project in the late 1980s, the Advanced Passenger Train in the 1990s, numerous tram projects in the noughties. Of course many of these projects eventually restarted and reaped benefits beyond expectation..The question is why do they seem to have such troubled births? It warrants deeper discussion. It is therefore my pleasure to welcome Kay Hughes, former HS2 design director and Andy Murray, executive director at the Major Projects Association who have just jointly authored a new report looking specifically at what the major projects sector can learn from this recent HS2 cancellation experience.

Well this one's going to be a bit grim. We'll cover off some news before I open for questions on the Hendygate situation. Safety, accessibility, and the railway's attitude to both are under extremely uncomfortable public scrutiny now, and so far the industry has not stepped up, so to speak. The situation at Euston shows no sign of improving, and the Rail Minister, Peter Hendy, is still in post. What's next? Enjoyed this?

On Friday, December 11, 2015, at 9:04 a.m., a man started a train journey at Ealing Broadway Station in west London, England.  At 9:50 a.m., he arrived at Euston station to book an over two-hour trip to Manchester.  The next day, at 10:47 a.m., his body was discovered by a cyclist close to the Chew Track near Saddleworth Moor in the Peak District National Park.  The man was 6 feet 1 inch tall, white, of slim build, and had receding grey hair and blue eyes and determined to be between 60 and 70 years of age.  However, this description was the only identifying factor initially discovered about him.  He had no ID, wallet, phone, or keys, nothing to tell who this man was.  He was dressed nicely but inappropriately for a hike in such inclement weather.  The only item found on his person was a container of Pakistani origin labeled for thyroid medication but which now contained strychnine.  This was the poison that led to his death.  The cyclist also found the man in an odd position; his arms crossed over his chest and next to the trail as if peacefully napping.  This was another puzzling clue, as victims of strychnine poisoning are usually writhing in agony before their horrible demise.  The pathology technicians who examined the body gave the unfortunate stranger the name of "Neil Dovestone" after the Dovestone reservoir near his resting place.  So, who was "Neil Dovestone," and why did he travel such a long distance to this particular spot for a careless hike, or was it for a darker purpose?  Who removed his identifying items, and did he take his own life or fall victim to murder?  Join us for part one of our investigation into The Body on the Moor.

On today's podcast: 1) President Joe Biden faces the biggest test yet of his ability to avert a wider war in the Middle East following US-led air strikes against Houthi rebels in Yemen aimed at halting their campaign of attacks on shipping traffic in the Red Sea. 2) After a rally in global bank stocks at year-end, the largest US banks need to show results that support their improved valuations. 3) After years of anticipation, the first US exchange-traded funds that invest directly in the biggest cryptocurrency have begun trading. Billions of dollars changed hands Thursday and the token briefly surged past $49,000 following the US Securities and Exchange Commission decision to grant them approval after markets closed on Wednesday.   Full Transcript:  Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here are the stories we're following today. Oil is surging this morning. It's up about three percent, trading at seventy four dollars twenty three cents for a barrel of West Texas Intermediate. That's after the US and Allies launched more than sixty air strikes overnight on Houthy targets in Yemen. They're trying to stop the Iran back groups shipping attacks in the Red Sea. Bloomberg's Nick Watams has more on the challenges ahead for the White House. The challenge for Joe Biden is he said, they wanted to deter the Uthies, but they also don't want to ignite a wider war. And the question is whether the Huties will stand down let's see if somewhat unlikely, or use this as a rallying cry told me, pursue their aims both against Israel and CEC's firing Gaza and against the United States in the Dallies. Bloomberg's Nick Watams reporting the Hoothie say the attacks killed five of their members and wounded six others, and they are promising the strikes will not go unanswered. Well back here in the US, Nathan, closing arguments have been delivered and now oh, we wait for the judge's decision. And then. A New York civil fraud trial of former President Donald Trump and Bloomberg's Amy Morris reports New York Attorney General Letitia James is seeking three hundred and seventy million dollars in fines and to bar Trump from the New York real estate industry. No matter how powerful you are, no no matter how rich you are, that no one is above the law. Appeals are likely, but this case could end Donald Trump's role in New York real estate for good. Trump spoke out in court attacking the judge overseeing the case and Attorney General James. Later, he gave a press conference outside the courtroom. He's a political hack, the attorney general. The judge is obviously extremely friendly with the group the Attorney General's office, as Trump orchestrated a sweeping fraud in which he inflated his net worth to obtain favorable loans. The judge expects to rule by January thirty first, Amy Morris, Bloomberg Radio, Okaymie, thank you. Meanwhile, President Biden's son Hunter May face a trial of his own this summer, right in the middle of his father's reelection care campaign. Hunter Biden has pleaded not guilty to charges that he failed to pay taxes on millions of dollars in foreign business income that followed the collapse of a plea deal last year. The judge in Los Angeles says he's considering a June twentieth trial date. Well. Turning to the markets now, Nathan, we continue to watch bitcoin. Following yesterday's historic Wall Street debut, the first US exchange traded funds investing directly in the largest digital currency finally went live, and we get the latest from Bloomberg's John Tucker, John and Karen. The batch of almost a dozen funds, including offerings from investment powerhouses black Rock and Fidelity Investments, got off to a strong start with two point three billion dollars exchanging hands the gray Scale Bitcoin Trust, so the largest ever first date turnover for an ETF. Gray Scale Investment CEO is Michael Sonenshein is just such a historic moment, in such a milestone, So thrilled, feeling really good today black Rock ice Hears Bitcoin Trust saw a billion dollars change hands that's the fifth largest ETF launch on record. Several firms turn to fee waivers in a bid to stand out, offering their ETFs for free for the first six or twelve months. One of the next stages of Wall Street adoption it's going to be when options tied to these ETFs are approved. A bitcoing this morning down about half a percent to about forty six thousand dollars. John Tucker, Bloomberg Radio, all right, John, thank you. Another focus for investors this morning turns to earnings, specifically bank earnings. With four of Wall Street's biggest reporting today, we get a preview from Bloomberg SHINELI, BASEK. Investors will be watching for what the cost base looks like. Has it gotten more expensive to operate and can they keep those costs in lines under further pressure on certain lines of revenue. Revenue might jump this year relative to last year for some of these banks. Investors will be watching for net interest income expectations at Bank of America, JP, Morgan Wells Fargo, and City Group as interest rates start to stabilize in twenty twenty four relative to the year before. Now, the question is who's the big winner and how many loans do Americans really need and how many of those loans start to go sour? Shanalie Basset, Bloomberg Radio, all right, Chanelle, thank you. On the economic front, we'll get another reading on inflation this morning. The Producer Price Index is forecast who have risen one tenth of one percent in December. The report comes a day after consumer prices rose more than expected. Cleveland Fed President Lorettamester says the latest data may put on top of a possible rate cut on hold. I think March is probably too early in my estimation for a rate decline because I think we need to see some more evidence. I think the December CPI report just shows there's more work to do. And Cleveland Fed President the Rettamester says the latest figures reinforce her view that policy is in a good position to assess incoming data on prices and employment and overseas, Karen Christine Leaguard says the European Central Bank will start lowering interest rates once it's convinced inflation's headed back to its two percent goal. Here's the ECB president speaking through an interpreter on French television. President, I cannot give you a date. But if we win this battle, if we reach the two percent inflation target as we're predicting twenty twenty five, and if it's confirmed by the data in the months to come, if this goes according to plan, and I'm being careful the way I say it, but I'm very confident, then the rates will start going down. And after Christine le Guard spoke money markets adjusted their rate cut bets. They now firmly favor six quarter percent reductions this year instead of five. Well, the UK economy saw a modest rebound in in November, Nathan, gross domestic product rows three tenths of a percent, bouncing back from a drop of the same scale in October. Economists had expected an increase of two tenths of a percent in saying in the UK Karen shares of Berbery are being taken to the cleaners. This morning, the trench code maker slashed its profit forecast due to a drop in sales in the key Christmas quarter. The one point, the shares were down fourteen percent. Now Burbery is lower by about seven percent. All right, Nathan, thank you. It's time now for a look at some of the other stories making news around the world, and for that. We're joined by Bloomberg's Amy Morris Samy, Good morning, Good morning, Karen. A polar vortex is about to unleash an Arctic blast across much of the US this weekend. Bloomberg meteorologist Rob Carolyn tracking the system. Wizard warnings are effective for parts of Iowa, Illinois, and southern Minnesota, while winter storm mornings are an effect for much of the western and central Great Lakes. Win advisories stretch from Texas into western New York and western New England. Floodwatchers are in effect from coastal portions of New England along the coast of New Jersey. Bloomberg Meteorologist Rob Carolyn, and the storm is going to bring with it bitter cold temperatures. On the day of the GOP Iowa Caucus, Florida Governor Ron de Santez is urging his supporters to brave the cold this coming Monday, So I'm asking you to go out there. I'm asking you to brave the elements. Former UN Ambassador NICKI Haley also acknowledged the coming bitter cold, asking for support at the polls. I'm going to be out there and i want you to go out there. Haley has topped Dissantis for the first time in the latest Iowa poll, but former President Donald Trump holds a dominant lead. Now that the Pentagon Inspector General is looking into the secret hospitalization of Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, the administration is defending its procedures. Bloomberg's Nancy lions at the very latest, the Inspector General will be looking into the process that's being followed for tracking Secretary Austin. National Security Council spokesman John Kirby says there is already a check in every morning that is logged. We're not going to track the GPS coordinates on a somebody's mobile phone in the administration, and we're not going to plan a microchip in their neck like their appoodle. They check in every day and we know where they are. Kirby admits the White House does need to know if a cabinet official becomes hospitalized or needs to delegate his or her authority. In Washington, Nancy lyons Bloomberg Radio. The International Court of Justice is hearing South Africa's case accusing Israel of genocide in its war in Gaza. Francis Boyce is Professor of international law at the University of Illinois and is a legal advisor to the State of Palestine. South Africa presented a solid case. I predict South Africa will win in order against Israel to cease and desist from committing all acts of genocide against the Palestinians. Israel is set to present its case today. Global news twenty four hours a day and whenever you want it with Bloomberg News Now, I maybe Morris in this is Bloomberg caron. All right, Ami, thank you. What we do bring you news throughout the day right here on Bloomberg Radio. But now you can get the latest news on demand, and that means whenever you want it. Just subscribe to Bloomberg News Now to get the latest headlines if the click of a button, get informed on your schedule. You can listen and subscribe to Bloomberg News Now on the Bloomberg Business app, Bloomberg dot Com plus Apples, Spotify, and anywhere else you get your podcasts. Time now for the Bloomberg Sports Update. Here's John Stashaur, John Karen What a while twenty four hours of football coaching departures first, Pete Carroll in Seattle followed quickly by Nick Saban and Alabama, and then yesterday morning, Bill Belichick in New England. Between the three, they held their most current positions for total of fifty five years. Saban and Belichick are close friends. In the nineteen nineties in Cleveland, Saban was Belichick's assistant. When Belichick became Patriots coach, he replaced Carol, and in nineteen eighty Carol left his job as defensive back coach at Ohio State and was replaced by Saban. NFL playoffs begain tomorrow Wildcard round with Cleveland at Euston, the Browns quarterback by thirty eight year old Joe Flacco, the Texans by twenty two year old CJ. Straud, and then, in what's expected to be a fringid cold night in Kansas City, it's the Chiefs against the Dolphins tripleheader on Sunday, and then on Monday, Philadelphia plays at Tampa Bay. The Celtics went to Milwaukee, top two teams in the East. It was all Bucks up seventy five to thirty eight at halftime. Milwaukee won one thirty five to one oh two, now twenty six and twelve on the seas in while the Celts dropped to twenty nine to nine. Talk about a blowout. It was Oklahoma City one thirty nine and Portland seventy seven, so the thunder one by sixty two. There was a game in Paris. Cleveland got forty five points from Donovan Mitchell Breet Brooklyn one eleven to one O two. John stansh Eward Bloomberg Sports from coast to coast, from New York to San Francisco, Boston to Washington, DC, nationwide on Syrias exam the Bloomberg Business Appen Bloomberg dot Com. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager. The risk of a wider war in the Middle East is in focus. The US and UK launched dozens of air strikes overnight against Hoothy militants in Yemen. This follows weeks of attacks on red Sea shipping that the Houthis have pledged to contin you until Israel stops the fighting against Hamas in Gaza. For the latest were joined by Rosalind mathieson our Europe, Middle East and Africa news director for Bloomberg News. Ros thanks for being with us once again. Now the Houthis are saying that these new air strikes will not go unanswered. They say, several of their members have been killed. What is the risk of a wider war at this point, well, that is the big question in the aftermath of this. The US had been saying for some days unless the Houthis stopped their attacks on shipping in the Red Sea, that there would be quoite consequences. So in a way they were compelled to do something, and these were very tactical, surgical strikes. The Houthis are saying that the death toll was five on their end and fairly small, and that these stripes were very well telegraphed also, which allowed them to clear out of some of their bases. So it does seem the objective was to make a point to the Huthies without escalating, and the Hoothy's feeling they need to take massive retaliation, or more importantly, their big backers Iran feeling they need to take some kind of retaliatory action. So it seems to have been sort of a calibrated response by the US and the UK, and there are other partners overnight. Of course, it does come though at a time of high tension in the region. You've got the war between Israel and Hamas and Gaza still going on. You've got this disruption to shipping in the area. You've got Hesblah occasionally having rocket exchanges with Israel from Lebanon in the north, and so there's a lot going on at the moment and a high tension environment. And so the question is at what point, if any, do some of these Iranian proxies tip things over into a full scale conflict. At least we can The initial interpretation from these air strikes overnight is that it's not designed to do that. We do have not just the Houthis backed by Iran, but Hesbolah backed by Iran that's been engaged in cross border skirmishes with Israel for months now as well. We are seeing this jump in oil prices. You have to wonder, when we're seeing the possibility of multiple fronts opening up in this war, whether we could see even further risk premium placed on commodities. It was interesting because the main move overnight was in oil and it moved up about two percent or so, but other sort of major assets were fairly calm in the face of this, because again it had been well telegraphed and right now the main thing is that even though there are these disruptions to shipping and there are concerns, particularly about what Iran might do next, supply has not been massively impacted. And it comes at a time, of course, where there are sort of question's over demand at the other end, and so you're not really seeing this long sort of running premium come into either oil or gas. What you are seeing is disruption to supply chains that may escalate and that may start to affect more companies who need to have their parts or products shipped through that part of the world, and that could be a real issue if the Suez Canal comes into the mix further. But it's interesting to not see a massive move so far in oil or gas in recent weeks and even overnight, and that is a signal that the market really seems to think that supply is not currently at risk. In terms of trying to tampen down the tensions in the region, what's the balance that the Biden administration is trying to strike here when we are starting to see these attacks take place, just after Secretary of State Anthony Blinkn had been back in the region trying to urge Israel to lower the temperature with hummies. Well, that's right. He just wrapped up his latest trip, which was his fourth I thinking in quick succession, and he toured the region and he visited a lot of countries to get their sense of things, and then ended up in Israel at the end. But his message has been about ensuring that this doesn't spill over into a broader crisis, messaging quite strongly with a run on that front, but also trying to press Israel to de escalate its conflict on the ground in Gaza, and so far the signs are that Israel's not particularly interested in doing that. They say that their ultimate goal remains the same, which is to make sure that Hamas can never again attack them in the way that they did back in October, and there's work still to be done there. So it seems as though the US is not having massive success getting Israel to listen to them on that front. In Israel says their war in Gaza is likely to go on at least for some months yet, and then the big question about what happens in Gaza obviously when the fighting stops. And so even though Blinken in his trip and other USE officials are sort of touting the desire of everybody to find some stability in all of this. You wouldn't really think that he came away from his latest trip with much to show for it. This is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning brief on the story's making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. Look for us on your podcast feed at six am Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you get your You can also listen live each morning starting at five am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine one in Washington, Bloomberg one oh sixty one in Boston, and Bloomberg ninety sixty in San Francisco. Our flagship New York station is also available on your Amazon Alexa devices. Just say Alexa play Bloomberg eleven thirty plus. Listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app, SERIUSXM, the iHeartRadio app, and on Bloomberg dot Com. I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Join us again tomorrow morning for all the news you need to start your day, right here on Bloomberg DaybreakSee

"El Hombre de los Relojes" (en inglés The Story of the Man With the Watches) es un relato corto escrito por Arthur Conan Doyle en 1898. Pertenece a la serie Round the Fire de The Strand Magazine. Es un día lluvioso y horrible en Londres en marzo de 1892, y se ve a dos figuras apresurándose para tomar el expreso de las cinco en punto desde la estación de Euston hacia Manchester. Uno es un hombre alto de unos cincuenta años, cuyos rasgos están ocultos por el cuello de Astracán vuelto hacia arriba de su abrigo. Su compañera es una joven alta, su rostro oscurecido por un velo. Rechazan un compartimento para fumadores cuyo único ocupante, un hombre barbudo de mediana edad, se ve claramente afectado por su repentina aparición. Intenta hablar, pero sus palabras se pierden en el ruido del tren que sale. Se detiene brevemente en Willesden a las 5:12 pm, y luego nuevamente en Rugby a las 6:50 pm, donde la puerta abierta de un carruaje de primera clase llama la atención. Los tres pasajeros ahora han desaparecido, y en su carruaje está el cuerpo de un joven que recibió un disparo en el corazón. No hay pista de su identidad pero, curiosamente, posee seis valiosos relojes de oro, todos de fabricación estadounidense... Se escribió en 1898 cuando Conan Doyle necesitaba fondos para completar Undershaw, su casa familiar privada en Surrey. Además, escribió las doce historias de Round the Fire entre el 13 de marzo y el 5 de octubre de 1898, con un total de 76.000 palabras en siete meses. Round the Fire se publicó en serie en The Strand Magazine desde junio de 1898, siendo esta la segunda historia y "El tren especial desaparecido" la tercera.

On today's show, Simeon Boikov will discuss with Lembit the Yes vote and why mainstream media seems to never get Simeon right. Later in the discussion, David Kurten takes a more confrontational stance, while Rishi Sunak remains non-committal regarding HS2. The future of HS2 at Euston depends on private funding, raising concerns about the possibility that HS2 services to Manchester could be slower than existing trains. The North's response to Sunak's reversal on HS2 has become a notable topic of interest and discussion. GUEST 1 OVERVIEW: Australian born Aussie Cossack rose to prominence during the NSW lockdowns as an outspoken media personality notorious for his hilarious interactions with the NSW police and numerous large scale campaigns against corrupt politicians. Boikov left Australia at the age of 18 to study at the Moscow Sretensky Seminary. It was here that he he had his first posting as a journalist Whilst in Russia Boikov became heavily involved in the Russian Cossack movement. Upon returning to Australia Boikov was elected the Ataman of the Australian Cossack chapter and founded a pro-Russian political newspaper called Russian Frontier. In May of 2022 the Aussie Cossack was jailed for 10 months for breaching a suppression and non-publication order for content posted to his YouTube channel. After successfully winning an appeal against the severity of the sentence Aussie Cossack left prison. In December 2022 the Aussie Cossack defected to the Russian Consulate in Sydney where he was granted diplomatic asylum. From his studio within the Consulate building, he now broadcasts daily on TNT Radio. GUEST 2 OVERVIEW: David Kurten is a writer, speaker, educator and served on the London Assembly from 2016 to 2021 sitting on the Education, Environment, Fire & Emergency, Housing and Transport committees at City Hall and is one of the founders of the Heritage Party.

The plan to rescue The Madonna gets very real. Contact is made with the agent of Duke of Buccleuch and a crunch meeting brings Robbie and his team to the point of no return.

Could a “super-hub” planned for the high-speed London-to-Birmingham rail link once the Cameron-Osborne government's flagship transport project be headed for the buffers?Because a four-and-a-half mile stretch crucial for getting passengers into central London from HS2's planned Old Oak Common interchange, near Wormwood Scrubs, is on ice as Euston project costs rocket from £2.6 billion to £4.8 billion.Now the Department for Transport's delaying the Euston project until the 2040s - that's a decade later than planned - as construction costs spiral and designers struggle to make the new HS2 station fit with the existing terminus.Nearby Camden residents have already suffered years of anxiety from the disruption - now they're in limbo living near a vast crater of a building site, with many fearing for their property values, structural integrity from tunnelling and mental health.The Leader podcast speaks with freelance journalist Ella Jessel, who's been investigating the project for the Standard's Homes & Property.Plus, how residents in Primrose Hill have seen their property prices fall and daily lives disrupted, with actress and local campaigner Annabel Leventon.
