Linda says that in addition to the economic consequences of ghost-town city centres, the lack of human contact and creative sparks is bad for business. She knows not everyone will agree, but she makes her case in a forthright way. 

Also on the show, Christian looks at the latest high-street footfall figures; Google’s decision to pass on the cost of the UK’s digital services tax; and David Blunkett’s calls to get civil servants back in the office.
