"London is not a bad place to live, and does a lot better on measures such as crime than many of the populist right ... would argue. However, as so often, housing costs are a pervasive drag on liveability, pushing people into poverty, hobbling aspiration and jeopardising the UK’s prosperity."
I write about the new Index of Multiple Deprivation, and why London has generally good scores on education, health, crime and employment, but still has eight boroughs numbered among the most deprived 20% districts in England.

Absolutely delighted to catch up with Xenographics, an initiative of @maartenzam.bsky.social. It was a big thing on Twitter some 4-5 years ago and I wish that the conversation would carry over on Bluesky. 📊

Good news + nice charts!
I was looking at some Scottish cause of death data yesterday and the extent to which transport accident deaths in young men have all but disappeared is pretty remarkable.

Nice to find a good news story in this data for a change.
