Gove's new aide: professor who wanted the North written off
The Independent, 26/09/2012, p.14, Jonathan Brown
The London School of Economics lecturer is an expert on urban life in Britain since the Victorian age. Dr Tim Leunig, who will now assist Mr Gove in his reforms of the education system, was co-author of a controversial 2008 report which appeared to suggest giving up on regeneration attempts in Liverpool, Bradford, Sunderland and Hull and abandoning the cities to permanent economic decline - and instead focusing on investment programmes in economically booming areas of the south of England.

Crisis in social care costs Britain over £5bn a year
The Independent, 26/09/2012, p.1, Nigel Morris
The extent of the losses to the economy was disclosed in a report from Age UK and Carers UK, building on work by the London School of Economics. They warned the problem would worsen unless ministers reversed cuts to town hall budgets that were affecting services and finally acted to settle the long-term funding of social care.

Should BBC have let Queen off the hook over Hamza?
The Independent, 26/09/2012, p.2, Terri Judd; Ian Burrell
Her biographer Sally Bedell Smith wrote: "She patiently explained to him over dinner that hunting was an activity not only for the upper class but regular people as well." Her Majesty was also enraged by the credit crunch, having lost a substantial portion of her personal fortune as the "awful" economic crisis began. At a briefing by LSE academics, she said: "Why did nobody notice it?"
