By Jasmin Prichard Scent is supposed to be the most powerful memory trigger, but for me music is far more evocative. A song can bring back countless memories whether it's the best night you ever had, heartbreak or a momentous festival moment. You hear the first few strings of the guitar or the starting notes of the piano and you're instantly transported back to that memory that is most strongly associated with the tune. Whatever that moment might be, that...

By Andy Irwin Labour needs to stop being terrified of its roots and be the loud voice of social justice – or risk irrelevance I recently had a rant at the Labour party on its Facebook page. It was lunchtime at work and I had just witnessed their latest party political broadcast entitled ‘The Uncredible Shrinking Man’ – quite possibly the most depressing three-minutes-and-forty-six seconds that I will never reclaim. A brief précis: Nick Clegg is the uncredible shrinking man –...

By Sophie Watson So, you’ve found someone that you fancy enough to take out for a first date. You’ve even agreed to meet for a drink (which, with London prices, means you must really fancy them). Of course, once you’ve decided on drinks, it is time for a tough decision. Where are you going to go?

By J T Coombes www.globalmagnacarta.com @GMagnaCarta Images and beliefs planted during the educational process, particularly in junior school, are a powerful tool with which to shape future society, something religious institutions have recognised and used for centuries. Within state schools education has been a political ‘football’ as successive governments, like religions, have sought to impose their vision of how to nurture our young. Just like a football the direction of education has bounced back and forth, leaving teachers and pupils...

By Bronwyn Cook It currently costs a staggering £10 (!) to enter the congestion zone that surrounds London’s central hub and is set to rise by an additional £1.50 by the 16th June. With the total cost of living unlikely to drop anytime soon throughout the UK, those entering London’s inner zone can be forgiven for feeling the squeeze. So what can be done to circumvent this charge whilst still sampling the delights of our capital’s culture? Lowering Emissions to...

By Sophie Watson If popular music is anything to go by, cheating in a relationship is an all-too-common event. As the songwriters tell it, Cecila is shaking your confidence daily, Jesse isn’t worth changing the sheets for, Ruby is taking her love to town and that Jolene has her emerald green eyes firmly fixed on your man. But how do these tales of woe translate in the real world? Do regular people cheat the way that music’s muses do? And,...
