If you don’t already live in Peckham then you have probably missed the boat getting a cheap property. The aspirant middle classes moved in a couple of years ago, which has brought a café and bar culture to the area, as well as inflated prices. But if you want to move to an area that is still vibrant and still doesn’t attract gangs of “bother boys,” like swathes of East London now does, then this area could be the spot...

By Charlotte Hope, @charlottehope Emma Watson is a Feminist  There’s very little disparaging I can actually say about this but I feel it should probably be brought up. Emma Watson (Hermione, for those of you who don’t know) is the UN Women’s Goodwill Ambassador and is the face and spokesperson for a new campaign called ‘He for She’. Make of Watson in the Harry Potter series what you will - it’s hard to say she didn’t deliver a powerful and...

By Charlotte Hope, @charlottehope  If you managed to look at the cover picture on this article without salivating then you're probably one of only a few, but if a despondent glare started to creep across your face as you contemplate the time and effort that goes into making such a meal then you're certainly not alone. But as I was about to find out, cooking nice meats doesn't have to be a time and labour intensive endeavour. On a pleasant...

By Harry Bedford, Music Editor The Beatles are without doubt the greatest pop band ever to have existed. They almost single- handedly invented popular music as we know it today, and it wasn’t just their music that was so phenomenal, their story is unimaginable. Four working class boys from Liverpool who became icons of one of the most iconic periods in recent history. While everyone else was riding the revolutionary wave of the 1960s, The Beatles were directing it. Although...

Chancery Lane, Friday 19th September 2014 Gaucho is renowned for being one of the capital's leading high-end Argentinian steak brands and it certainly lived up to its excellent reputation when TLE visited the Chancery Lane restaurant on Friday. In a convenient central location on the corner of Chancery Lane and Fleet Street the smart, unfussy exterior gives way to the unmistakably ‘Gaucho’ interior of dark moody lighting, sumptuous décor and a five star hostess greeting. From the moment we arrived we knew...

By Jack Peat, Editor of The London Economic There was a time when food was a valued commodity and was treated as such. We would know the source of our food, understand seasonality and accept that everything has a shelf life, but the industrialisation of food means food waste is no longer the problem, food is. I hate to waste food, I've written many an article on frugal recipes and the method behind the madness, but I'm a product of...

Sport News 24/7 By James Mackney @JimMackney It has been a perfect weekend for Southampton football club. And before you slam an insult into the comment box below let me finish. Saints go into a tough but winnable Capital One Cup match against Arsenal second in the Premier League table and they are there on merit, and survived the agony of four games being played today, two of which could've knocked them off their nosebleed perch. Saints put in a steady and...
