This is what the answer looks like, by the way... Standard GB platform position, low floor train, gap filler. Not perfect, but enables independent travel for almost everyone currently excluded from rail travel by inaccessible design.

Koen Lamberts is Vice-Chancellor of the university of Sheffield, UK higher education’s biggest recipient of funding from arms companies where students have been protesting for over a month. The VC has refused to meet so far Sometimes a picture really is worth a thousand words

"Change?" If only. Labour’s housing plans are built on flimsy foundations, fantasies and fudge theguardian.com/artanddesign/a…

In May this year, Lord Peter Hendy pressured my now-former employer SYSTRA UK & Ireland to sack me by threatening them. Why did he do this? Because I'd highlighted safety and accessibility issues at Euston station. He is unfit for office and should resign. politico.eu/article/uk-rai…
