The UK’s car- and London-centric transport policy undermines accessibility. It is pushing millions into effective poverty and entrenching transport emissions through forced car ownership. Will Edmonds argues that prioritising public transport, and equalising accessibility, would break Britain's reliance on the car
Will Edmonds argues that the UK’s targeted, means-tested social housing is permitted by a culture that criminalises poverty, and has enabled tragedies like the Grenfell fire. A look through the history of UK public housing shows that the government should adopt a humane, universalist approach
Will is an economist by training, but has developed an interest in UK government policy, and how we can create a more equal society.
He is now a candidate for a PhD in Public Policy Research at King's College London, in which he seeks to understand whether English devolution is enabling a more just transport sector.
