using highways as flood channels is a complete no-no until we started to bring out examples like the glasgow flooding and said for most of this event, the highways acted as flood channels. the interesting thing when you start to look at urban flooding, you start to learn some very important lessons. first is that water flows downhill. secondly, it accumulates in low spots. in the uk, it's very interesting what you find in those low spots. first of all, you find that's where the low income houses, that's where the poor people live, the people who have no say really in what goes on in the community. so i was really pleased you make the point about environmental justice. the second thing you find out in the uk it's almost always where we put our emergency services because the land is cheap. your fire departments, the ambulances, all that disappears in the first half hour of the storm. >> we use earthquake faults for that. >> okay, but i like the idea of the pilot project because people don't have to commit themselves so much. you get them working on the pilot project and then you expand it. >>

loophole there that needs to be tightened also you can harden the target for example you've seen in glasgow scotland an attack by vehicle. driving into to the terminal of course we can tell you can you can build barriers so that vehicles can't round but of course possibly one of the more innovative ways is of course to sport behavior to have monitoring behavior that's taking place for example at heathrow airport by the british aviation authority so there are ways in which you can better perhaps create a level of uncertainty for whoever may do this and perhaps need to early intervention but of course we have to remember that that they're likely perpetrator was carrying the bomb in a suitcase and or in a bag and how do you how do you spot how do you see that kind of behavior if you don't have advance when you when you talk about the perpetrator in question here the thinker of blame is pointing to certain areas you know russia has got a history with terrorists from the north caucasus now it's not confirmed that yesterday's attack was carried out by a terrorist from the north caucuses but it se

of people working in call centers, people working insurance, not just in london but in edinburgh, glasgow, birmingham. i think the tragedy of the last decade, a decade where there was a lot of economic growth but that growth was based on too narrow a basis of our economy. when you actually look at -- i think 75% of the growth basically came from financial services, housing, government spending, and immigration. now, that is not a sustainable model for economic growth. and that is why we do need to rebalance our economy with greater emphasis on exports on manufacturing, on high tech, on the new green economies, not ignoring the city of london. it will go on being a great success but we need to see greater sources of growth for our economy as a whole. because we were so overreliant on the city, because we were so overborrowed and so overleveraged that was one of the reasons why the crash hit us so badly. so i want to learn the lessons from that but i certainly understand the strength that the city of london brings. it is one of our competitive advantages. it is one of the reasons businesses
