In Tokyo, you cannot have a car unless you have an off-road place to park it. Their streets are lovely.

Before it all went wrong, I used to love Dilbert. This was mainly because I was working at the BBC and it was a very accurate description of my life.

I am campaigning about this, along with many others and my excellent local MP Anna Sabine (sadly not on here yet) has written a letter to the relevant ministers.
Even if you don't feel able to talk about planning or respond to the NPPF, could your MP write something too?

Guess what is in the new draft NPPF? Exactly nothing. At the moment the document doesn't include the word woman, women or gender once. It is a prime example of default male thinking, but also of how government isn't even talking to itself when it makes these recommendations.

Just a couple of weeks earlier, and still in December, the second part of the Angiolini inquiry into the Sarah Everard case was published. This too recommended that national planning and design policy should consider VAWG and it even singled out the NPPF.

The NPPF was published in December 2025. Two days earlier, the government's shiny new guidance on Violence against Women and Girls, which said that public realm policy should include women's safety as a priority.

All bundled up with a blinkered male privilege which fails to see what the problem is for other people.

They were certainly influenced by slightly later sculptures - John Piper spent a lot of time photographing Anglo Saxon fonts, for example.
