Better use of space | YouGov polls | Guardian subscribers | Magic money tree
George Monbiot (Spend more money on the public space for all our sakes, 31 May) misses a wonderful opportunity to revive community and make better use of space while boosting the economy, taking pressure off transport infrastructure and reducing emissions. One in seven in the UK now works mainly from home – millions more part-time. Policies that encourage this popular, family-friendly working practice – and facilitate building for it – could contribute to solving some of our most intractable problems.

• It seems to me that whatever is intended and however justifiable their methodology, the effect of YouGov’s polls is always to frighten Tories/anti-Scottish-independence people into to turning out to vote. It isn’t “brave” of the Times to splash their results on their front page (Analysis, 1 June), it is calculated, and in line with Murdoch’s efforts through the years to do anything possible to prevent Labour getting a foot in No 10. What is a trashed reputation compared with getting what you want?
