This was a lot of fun to put together. And my knowledge of Burger Kings located on the M4 somehow came in handy.
Big thanks to the encyclopaedic @mwayservices. Much love to @SharanyaDeepak & @demarionunn for amazing editorial support.
Our new season of essays exploring how policy shapes the way we eat begins with @KibbleFrank on the food of motorway service stations, and how a series of policies made under Conservative governments have turned them into destinations in their own right

Protect the heritage of #Oasis at Swindon's famous Oasis Leisure Centre, where the band's name derived!
@SevenCapital and @SwindonCouncil want to knock it down and not replace, the same year that Oasis gets back for it's reunion.
Don't allow this cultural vandalism to happen!

After fighting to save so many examples in our long running campaign, it’s great to see the art of muralism still thrives.
This fantastic 57m chromatic mosaic mural by @Furmadamadam and @lsomuralism has recently been completed at London Bridge. A candidate for future listing? 👀

RIP Chuck Roberts 💔
Songwriter, producer and vocalist Chuck Roberts has died aged 66.
Often labelled the “Voice of House Music”, Roberts is best known for his spoken-word sermon on Rhythm Controll’s 1987 track ‘My House’ — which starts with the iconic phrase “In the beginning there was jack”.
According to a statement, Roberts passed away “peacefully” at his home in Illinois on June 6 following a battle with cancer.
Among those to have paid tribute to Roberts is Terry Hunter, who shared the news on Facebook, writing: “I can’t believe I’m writing this! RIP Chuck The Voice Roberts!!!! In the Beginning There Was Jack!”
Mixmag visited Roberts in 2018 to record his inspiring sermon around New York, watch it below 🙏

It even featured on the cover of @themaccabees 2015 album ‘Marks to Prove It’.

Much as I love Skyfall, the bit where Bond drives M to Scotland in his Aston Martin DB5 is very short on detail - in one scene they're in Chelsea, the next in the Highlands. You don't see them having a Burger King in Charnock Richard, or Wetherby Services if they'd taken the A1.

'Inside the abandoned tower on the M6': The Pennine Tower Restaurant at the Forton Services, Lancaster. T P Bennett (1964-65), Grade II listed.
Surely there must be a new operator out there with the vision to take on this titan of carchitecture?

Breaking my bollox at the person that’s gone over to London branding grub from a petrol station as “Irish street food”
Unbelievable
