In Mayfair, excess is an art form. But even by London’s most extravagant standards, Bacchanalia feels like something else entirely — not just a restaurant, but a staged spectacle of indulgence. Inspired by the mythology and decadence of ancient Greece and Rome, Bacchanalia does not flirt with theatricality. It commits to it. From the moment you step inside, the tone is set: towering classical statues stand sentinel between tables, sweeping staircases frame the dining rooms like a grand opera set, and glittering chandeliers wash marble and gilded accents in warm, flattering light. The space does not whisper luxury — it…

In a landmark move for both climate policy and global aviation strategy, Singapore has introduced the world’s first passenger-ticket levy on sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) — a charge aimed at accelerating the roll-out of cleaner fuels while positioning Southeast Asia as a major production hub. The policy heralds significant changes for air travel in the region and reflects shifting global dynamics as some traditional markets pull back on clean energy incentives. The levy, which will be applied to airline tickets sold from 1 April 2026 for flights departing after 1 October 2026, will range from approximately US $0.75 for short-haul…

Price momentum and company-specific developments have been key drivers of the rally. Several factors are shaping this dynamic: Overall gains in energy indices suggest the sector is no longer a uniform trade — performance varies by commodity exposure, balance sheet resilience and project pipelines — but the near-term trend leans positive as prices stabilise and strategic drivers…

In the midst of economic uncertainty, labour shortages and cost pressures, social housing is emerging as a potent catalyst for offsite construction methods — a shift that could reshape how the country delivers homes at scale. This change reflects broader pressures on the sector but also hints at a strategic pivot: using social housing demand to drive productivity, industrialisation and modern manufacturing in building. (pbctoday.co.uk) Beyond policy rhetoric, the conversation now centres on whether manufactured and modular approaches can deliver on cost, quality and speed — and whether social housing…
