Levy a Congestion charge but give drivers the equivalent in vouchers to use on public transport. Rory Sutherland argues that the greatest barrier to switching is habit rather than inconvenience. behavioralscientist.org/designing-tr...
Designing Transport for Humans, Not Econs - By Pete Dyson & Rory Sutherland - Behavioral Scientist
It’s common to hear that transport providers are “simply getting people from A to B”: a low-bar ambition that misses the real purpose of much travel.

That's the same language he uses when he fails to condemn Israel. Clearly he doesn't want to upset or stand up to McSweeney.

I'm getting an unsafe link warning.

That third option is non-viable and non-sustainable. You can't have an ever expanding economy. Eventually you run out planet. The belief that we can is a variant of neoliberal myth of trickle down wealth.

Reduce overall drug consumption by taking the profit out of drug dealing. Natonalise county lines.

Heartening that middle england people reject racial bigotry..but sad that they embrace the narrative of laziness as the primary cause of poverty. Tax the rich and they think it'll catch them too. Most people seem to not understand just how rich some people are. Nor how they they got so rich.

Nothing whatsoever to do with proposing proscription of the IDF as a terrorist organisation. The BBC is fearless in the face of the Israel lobby an scrupulously even handed.

Important to say: the title of the motion doesn't reflect the content, as mentioned in the debate - even by the proposer. It's about holding landlords to far greater account, and working towards far more equitable housing ownership without a profit motive. Having lodgers isn't affected.
