You have to register to be a member on the TFL website before you can start renting bikes, for now at least. And the website’s a little bit erratic. But that aside (and I do realize this is by no means a new concept) I’m secretly psyched about it.

Did you know that there are 232,000 designers in the UK? And that 60% of them are male, with females only accounting for 40% ? Or that only 51% of the 232,000 designs have a degree. For more insights on the design industry, this cutely designed, concise little supplement by the UK Design Council proves a well interesting read!

PROJECTION of the ELECTION!  For the first time ever in the history of British politics, the results will be beamed onto the Big Ben from the moment the first results are declared to when the final count is in (due early friday morning)! First the outright cheeky Conservative campaign, and now this. My my, I have to say, the British are many things, but they sure as hell are not apathetic towards their politics. Heck, even I’m hooked, and that’s saying something.

The Conservative party’s new campaign features opposition leader Gordon Brown. I saw the banner at St. George’s Wharf and laughed so hard, came home and quickly googled it. Have to say that the Conservatives are doing hell of a fine job gathering attention, and personally I love it! Even if only because hell would sooner freeze over before we see anything remotely like this back home in Singapore. So there, props on the campaign. Visit the Conservative Party’s website to view more of their posters and the justification behind them. What do you guys think? Love it or hate it?
