Why didn’t they just up their rates?

Zipcar, world’s biggest car-sharing company, to close UK operation Move by firm, owned by US group Avis Budget, will remove access to shared fleet across London at end of year

The news that Zipcar is folding at the end of the year is deeply dismaying. The car club availability was at the heart of our decision to abandon car ownership around five years ago. Do share your reccs for other car club services (covering south London).

London is thriving. And the right can’t stand it.

They talk down our capital constantly, but the city is measurably becoming a better place to live.

I think it rather proves my point that good design and proper resourcing can enhance nature rather than trashing it. This is a beautiful ancient aqueduct, not a blight of cheap makeshift pylons! Wind turbines a different (ish) issue, but it’s disingenuous to compare the two.

On May 9, it will not be the army that won World War II and liberated Europe that will march on Red Square in Moscow.

Occupiers, terrorists, and war criminals will march there. They have killed and are killing, raping, and torturing Ukrainian civilians and children right now.

This eats away at their own integrity as much as it gives succour to the malign intentions of Oligarchy.

Zelensky is perhaps the defining figure of our age. Brave, ingenious, pragmatic and defined by his convictions. They hate him because he kills fascists.

In the autumn of 1918, the Spanish flu pandemic reached Vienna. Edith, who was six months pregnant, died from the disease on 28 October. Schiele died only three days after his wife. He was 28 years old. During the three days between their deaths, Schiele drew a few sketches of Edith.
