Send us a textIntergenerational Wealth and Mobility: New research shows that the UK's housing boom benefited not just homeowners, but also their children, who now enjoy greater financial assets and career opportunities—especially if their families could help them move to London. The effect, however, is much stronger for sons than daughters, further widening the gender gap.Housing Market Downturn and Inequality: The London housing market is facing unique pressures: values are falling—particularly in prime areas—while changes to tax policy, service charges, and broader economic uncertainty are pushing more people to sell or leave. Property wealth is now a major driver of inequality, shaping both homeownership and professional success.The Pension and Homeownership Link: Traditionally treated as separate policies, pensions and homeownership are now intertwined. As homeownership rates drop and retirement costs rise, the challenge for younger generations intensifies. Other countries, like New Zealand and Singapore, offer models where pensions can be used to support first-time buyers, sparking debate about how the UK might respond.Prime Rentals and Regional Trends: Prime rental rates are soaring in South West London, thanks to strong local demand, good schools, and transport links. Meanwhile, the rental market is also tight in regional commuter hubs, with supply shortages and shifting landlord sentiment due to policy changes.Office Space and Commercial Demand: There's a dramatic shift underway in commercial real estate: offices are once again the most sought-after asset nationwide, but in London, oversupply and high expectations mean only the best-designed, future-proof buildings are attracting serious attention.PROPERTY WEALTH - Transforming challenges into opportunities with specialist knowledge and reach.

In the latest episode of the Better Places Podcast, Concilio's Sam Griffiths is joined by Professor Tony Travers of the London School of Economics, to discuss the upcoming local elections in London in May 2026. Tony is the leading academic expert on London's government and politics, and this fascinating discussion explores the forces changing London politically and how they are making the elections next year increasingly hard to predict. The topics Tony and Sam cover include: - How is the rise of so-called ‘Pro-Gaza independent' groups in parts of East London going to challenge Labour's traditional dominance in these areas, and what ideology drives these new campaigners? - How will the new Green party leader Zack Polanski, and his energetic brand of ‘eco-populism', impact the race and tempt younger votes away from Labour? - Are the Liberal Democrats poised to make gains, not just in their traditional strongholds in South-West London but also in the centre of the city?   - Can the Conservatives stage a fightback and take back control of their former ‘flagship' councils like Westminster and Wandsworth? - What will the Reform UK factor be? How will Farage's upstart party disrupt the contest and what councils could they win? - And finally, what does this upheaval mean for planning and development in the capital? This is an indispensable briefing on the current state of the race to control London's councils next year, and if you want to understand how planning and development could change in the capital as a result. Concilio will shortly be launching the first in a series of London local election reports – giving you data-led analysis of the key council races, the latest news on campaigns and candidates, and our analysis of what it could mean for the property sector.

Welcome to this season's Family Travel Special. Having been thrust into the world of family travel a couple of years with the arrival of my daughter, I quickly realised that it's an area that there could be a lot more helpful information about, it's a huge market and I was scouring the internet for destinations and hotels that weren't your typical all inclusive family resorts, and I really struggled. So I decided to integrate these into the travel diaries podcast lineup, to hopefully give you some travel inspiration, destination ideas, tips and tricks for travelling with children. And today, I'm joined by a very special guest who knows a thing or two about that. Olivia Hammond and I first met in our antenatal bump and baby group in South West London, and we were very lucky, we had such a lovely group and we became friends. When her gorgeous boy, Beau, arrived in November 2022, Olivia began documenting her daily life and travels on TikTok and Instagram, and almost immediately her honest and relatable videos led her to become one of the uk's leading content creators in her field, with videos amassing hundreds of millions of views. It has been an astonishingly fast ascent to mum-fluencer stardom, but it's no surprise to me because I think everyone can relate to her videos, they're so watchable. So when thinking about who would be a good guest for this episode, Olivia was the obvious choice. She has been far more intrepid than me when it comes to travelling as a family. You'll hear she flew to the other side of the world when Beau was just a month old, she's flown with him countless times to Europe, the Caribbean, taken him travelling all around Sri Lanka and even camped with him at Glastonbury. And now, since we recorded this episode, beau has a beautiful little sister, called Lila, and Lila is about to embark on her first trip abroad, at only a few weeks old too.I hope this episode shows you that whatever age or stage, travel is not off limits with a family.Olivia's Destination Recap:Costa Rica Algarve, PortugalHolly:Vila Vita Parc, Algarve, Portugal OliviaSigiriya, Sri LankaKandy, Sri Lanka Ella, Sri Lanka Udawalawa, Sri LankaHiriketiya, Sri LankaAntonio's, Algarve, PortugalSr Frango's, Algarve, Portugal Olhão, Algarve, Portugal Ilha do Farol, Algarve, Portugal Ilha Deserta, Algarve, Portugal Ilha Armona, Algarve, Portugal Fuerteventura, SpainCape Town, South Africa Nicaragua You can follow all of Olivia's adventures on her Instagram which is Olivia_Hammond and her TikTok is OliviaClaireM.Thanks so much for listening today.

They talk about the start of her relationship with Jack Rosenthal, whom she eventually married, and about what happened when Hugh Jackman announced, on stage, that he was too sick to do a Saturday matinee of Oklahoma.

Many traders like the fast action of a one-minute chart. Only a few who do can trade it consistently. Daniel Munday prefers the higher timeframes. It doesn't surprise me, because everything about his demeanour exudes patience and humility - a far cry from the picture of raving traders in the land of Wolf on Wall Street. It's only fitting perhaps that Daniel not only prefers trading the higher timeframes, he also enjoys mentoring other traders. Here we are in his spotless apartment in South West London, middle of May 2024.==Magic Mind - the one-shot, mental performance drink.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: "No-one in my org puts money in their pension", published by tobyj on February 16, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Epistemic status: the stories here are all as true as possible from memory, but my memory is so so. This is going to be big It's late Summer 2017. I am on a walk in the Mendip Hills. It's warm and sunny and the air feels fresh. With me are around 20 other people from the Effective Altruism London community. We've travelled west for a retreat to discuss how to help others more effectively with our donations and careers. As we cross cow field after cow field, I get talking to one of the people from the group I don't know yet. He seems smart, and cheerful. He tells me that he is an AI researcher at Google DeepMind. He explains how he is thinking about how to make sure that any powerful AI system actually does what we want it to. I ask him if we are going to build artificial intelligence that can do anything that a human can do. "Yes, and soon," he says, "And it will be the most important thing that humanity has ever done." I find this surprising. It would be very weird if humanity was on the cusp of the most important world changing invention ever, and so few people were seriously talking about it. I don't really believe him. This is going to be bad It is mid-Summer 2018 and I am cycling around Richmond Park in South West London. It's very hot and I am a little concerned that I am sweating off all my sun cream. After having many other surprising conversations about AI, like the one I had in the Mendips, I have decided to read more about it. I am listening to an audiobook of Superintelligence by Nick Bostrom. As I cycle in loops around the park, I listen to Bostrom describe a world in which we have created superintelligent AI. He seems to think the risk that this will go wrong is very high. He explains how scarily counterintuitive the power of an entity that is vastly more intelligent than a human is. He talks about the concept of "orthogonality"; the idea that there is no intrinsic reason that the intelligence of a system is related to its motivation to do things we want (e.g. not kill us). He talks about how power-seeking is useful for a very wide range of possible goals. He also talks through a long list of ways we might try to avoid it going very wrong. He then spends a lot of time describing why many of these ideas won't work. I wonder if this is all true. It sounds like science fiction, so while I notice some vague discomfort with the ideas, I don't feel that concerned. I am still sweating, and am quite worried about getting sunburnt. It's a long way off though It's still Summer 2018 and I am in an Italian restaurant in West London. I am at an event for people working in policy who want to have more impact. I am talking to two other attendees about AI. Bostrom's arguments have now been swimming around my mind for several weeks. The book's subtitle is "Paths, Dangers, Strategies" and I have increasingly been feeling the weight of the middle one. The danger feels like a storm. It started as vague clouds on the horizon and is now closing in. I am looking for shelter. "I just don't understand how we are going to set policy to manage these things" I explain. I feel confused and a little frightened. No-one seems to have any concrete policy ideas. But my friend chimes in to say that while yeah there's a risk, it's probably pretty small and far away at this point. "Experts thinks it'll take at least 40 more years to get really powerful AI" she explains, "there is plenty of time for us to figure this out". I am not totally reassured, but the clouds retreat a little. This is fine It is late January 2020 and I am at after-work drinks in a pub in Westminster. I am talking to a few colleagues about the news. One of my colleagues, an accomplished government ec...

Due to scheduling issues we are unable to bring you a new episode this week so instead we have delved into the archives to bring you a Classic Blank episode with Gary Lineker. Gary is in the new this week after being suspended by Match of the Day for refusing to apologise for tweeting his political views. Gary spoke to us way back in 2018 about his twitter usage and you can hear him talk about that at 50:05 in this episode. Gary Lineker is a former professional footballer and current sports broadcaster. He holds England's record for goals in FIFA World Cup finals, with 10 scored and is England's third highest top scorer. His media career began with the BBC, where he still presents the flagship football programme Match of the Day since the late 1990s. He has also worked for Al Jazeera Sports, Eredivisie Live, NBC Sports Network and currently hosts BT Sport's coverage of the UEFA Champions League. Gary very kindly invited Giles and Jim to his house in South West London back in 2018 for a cuppa and a chat about all things BLANK. We talked about making big decisions at a young age and the feeling of getting to a point where you're confident in what you do. Gary also talked openly about those moments off the field, including when his first son George was diagnosed with leukaemia as a child, had affected him and how football helped him through that time. With Christmas just around the corner, Giles and Gary share some cooking tips while Jim ponders what a waterbath is. @blankpod @eliistender @jimdalycomedy @garylineker blankpodcast2018@gmail.com
