'UK's worst city' launches new rule to attract people to struggling high street (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A major UK city often ranked as one of Britain’s “worst” is to offer free parking in a bid to attract shoppers to its struggling high street. Peterborough is the fifth-fastest-growing city in the country, but has frequently been ranked plum last in UK league tables as locals bitterly complain about a dated high street and yobs running riot. Losing its flagship John Lewis and M&S stores, in 2021 and 2024 respectively, was seen as a body blow for its high street – but its defenders say the derogat
Careers expert issues unemployment crisis alert – 'we risk a lost generation' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As unemployment mounts, vacancies dwindle, and panic soars that AI will steal our jobs, it might feel like a scary time for a youngster to be starting out in life. Yet while he fears the catastrophe of a “lost generation” of young people unable to find work, Jimmy McLoughlin also says: “There’s never been a more exciting time to be starting your career.” It is a surprising paradox from the former Downing Street special adviser, who now hosts the viral Jimmy’s Jobs of the Future podcast, in an er
The city fighting to save its reputation after being repeatedly named UK's worst (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Before I even arrive in Peterborough, I get a powerful sense that this is a place fighting to save its reputation.

Read excerpt
With a bustling high street jam-packed with more than 50 independent shops, Banstead is not just any village. While most are lucky to have a pub and a corner shop, the leafy Surrey settlement is stuffed with an incredible total of 100 national and local traders, including a high-quality butcher, a renowned wine merchant and several boutique clothing stores. Even many towns would struggle to match its range of cafés, restaurants and supermarkets, with a large Waitrose seen as the icing on the cak
I refuse to pay by contactless – the dark facts behind tap and pay no one knows (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In today’s hi-tech world, paying for the weekly shop or a round of drinks on a night out is as easy as just a single tap. Yet even though he is a highly tech-savvy IT entrepreneur, Andy Beverley insists on counting out banknotes and loose change instead – because of the damage he believes contactless payment is wreaking on society. It is far from convenient. Cash is used for just 12% of UK purchases, according to a parliamentary report from last year. Many self-service tills at major supermarket
