I'll take my city advice from someone else thanks

Two weeks ago, the FT asked her: Do you believe in an afterlife?
Yes. I can’t imagine how it might work. However, the universe is not limited by what I can imagine.
We are heartbroken at the death of our beloved author, Dame Hilary Mantel, and our thoughts are with her friends and family, especially her husband, Gerald. This is a devastating loss and we can only be grateful she left us with such a magnificent body of work.

If workers spend less time together, their social ties will weaken, as will the attachment to an employer. Meanwhile, the bonds with friends and family strengthen. A potential “shift”, is that work simply becomes “less important” in our lives.

FT editorial:
The talk of “betrayal” by some Brexiters is nonsense. The real betrayal is by those who promoted falsehoods during the referendum, such as the prospect of Turkey joining the bloc and an immediate windfall from savings on the EU budget.
