Episode notes

More than 11,000 millionaires have left London in the last 12 months. It’s the biggest exodus of the super-wealthy from any city in the world, second only to Moscow.


In this episode, The Standard’s news reporter Bill Bowkett joins us to discuss what’s driving the trend and what it means for London’s economic future.


Plus, cuts to the Metropolitan Police mean the end of officers in schools. The Standard’s crime correspondent Anthony France explains the impact the loss of Safer Schools Officers could have on London’s young people.
