Bonjour,
Tonight, despite the severe rain, we discussed Boris' bike hire scheme and as the summer ends if people will continue to use the bikes through the winter months. With London Underground seeing several 24 hour strikes in the coming weeks, will people turn to pedal power? We looked at the place of the Unions in the modern employment market and how much collateral they have today versus time gone by. Plus, as Prince Charles gets permission to install solar panels on the roof of Clarence House, we asked if it's right to turn old architecture into new with this technology. We counted the cost of the kit and asked why modern office buildings haven't been built to generate their own electricity. And with councils looking to reduce rubbish collections to save cash, we asked if once a fortnight is enough to keep the rats at bay. Finally, the number of pensioners happy with their retirement abroad is on the rise, we asked where you'd retire to and why. All that plus the front pages. Back tomorrow at 10pm.
