Driving now compared to a generation ago is more smooth and automatic, the grip of the road responsive. But for many enthusiasts, too much electronic gadgetry distracts from the fundamentals.

Thanks to Alleycat Films for sharing this powerful short film about the suspension of free travel for under 18's in London. We will continue to seek a better deal for TfL and for young people from the Government @AlexDonaldson2

You wanna hear why the UK is racist 😄 We’ve just been hit with a £8k bill for NHS care for my grandad (who’s been living in the UK for 60 years). The man passed away away last August & apparently we are liable for his NHS costs. Despite him being a UK citizen (cont)

14% of English-born football players hail from the 10-square-mile stretch that encompasses south London.
Sancho, Zaha, Abraham, Gomez, Pinnock, Hudson-Odoi, Wan-Bissaka to name just a few.
We're loving this film of cage ball in the Concrete Catalonia.

This short film takes a glimpse inside The Cage, an environment that has shaped stars such as @Sanchooo10, @J_Gomez97 & @awbissaka.
