On The Abundance Agenda this week:
The London Assembly has called for the Mayor to restart HS2 planning, so we dig into Crossrail 2 – and how construction has already (sort of) started.
Martin has been down in the dumps, literally, and has been figuring out why Oxfordshire has an enormous pile of rubbish dumped just off the A34.
We have a very quick chat with Chris Curtis MP, who has been down to Ebbsfleet to see where the ‘jumping spiders’ have thwarted building a major new town centre.
And we speak to Laura Ryan from the Tony Blair Institute about her important new paper, proposing new national laboratories designed to create new ‘disruptive’ technologies.
James’s piece on how he uses AI (and why the haters are wrong) is here.
You can find Martin’s newsletter here, and his YouTube channel here.
Our episode where we have a big fight about AI is here.
Don’t forget to tell your friends about the pod – and leave us a nice review on Apple Podcasts!
The Abundance Agenda is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and hopefully wherever you get your podcasts!
