The AM Glass Box. 09:50am on 13 Nov 2009 How long does it take to train a train driver?
The new weather forecast. 10:30am on 13 Oct 2009 I heard it before seeing the map, and was surprised when the weather for Eastern and North-East England included the temperature for Leeds.
Obviously it would take a bit longer, but is there any chance of going from 6 to the 8 standard government office english regions (assuming London is combined with the South-East). I already know where these are, rather than having to try to remember your unique classification.
The Supreme Court. 4:34pm on 05 Oct 2009 Is David Cameron offering to hold a referendum on it?
The AM Glass Box 09:55am on 29 Sep 2009 How about something on the two women who died from cervical cancer yesterday?
Or the two women who will die from cervical cancer today?
Or the five women who died from cervical cancer over the weekend?
Or the two women who will die from cervical cancer tomorrow?

Shall I go on
Map of the Week: How green is your valley? 2:01pm on 28 Sep 2009 Mark,
How do Lincoln residents emit 4.9 tonnes CO2 each on minor petrol road transport, when their TOTAL road transport emissions are only 0.7t per capita (the third lowest, with a dark blue dot on the map)?
...well that will be because you inverted the calculation and have shown the number of people it takes to emit a tonne of CO2.

Otherwise, if you look at the data by region, the big variation in emissions is in the Industrial, Commercial & Public sector - from NE England 8.2 and Wales 6.5, to Greater London 2.7 (UK 3.9 - all figures tonnes CO2 per capita). Road Transport goes from Northern Ireland 2.9 to Greater London 1.2 (UK 2.2) and Domestic from NI 3.3 to Greater London 2.1 (UK 2.4).

Also the Local Authority data for Northern Ireland includes pro-rata distribution of the electricity emissions.
Weather update. 9:50pm on 15 Sep 2009 Another vote for the "shipping forecast" style.
Interesting that the Met Office already seem able to do a standardised regional forecast.
Tomorrow's World tonight. 3:12pm on 14 Sep 2009 The 1st edition was about "...kidney dialysis, flood defences and life on Mars"
O, how far we've come.
How early should something be done? 2:41pm on 08 Sep 2009 How much did the trial cost, and what could you get for that that would do some good?
The AM Glass Box 09:59am on 03 Sep 2009 Are you going to Altrincham or Eccles while the tram is free?
The AM Glass Box. 10:14am on 27 Jul 2009 UK elderly fourth poorest in EU

Why is equality so unpopular in the UK?
Extra marks for using the term "Gini coefficient"
