Description

On today’s Tech and Science Daily from The Standard, we cover DLR cleaners striking over sick pay on London’s driverless railway, the Courtauld’s £82m plan to transform Somerset House into a state-of-the-art campus, and new UK analysis warning that over-reliance on carbon removals could push up climate costs.


In gaming, Cyberpunk 2077 passes 35 million sales and outpaces The Witcher 3, while in consumer tech Apple is tipped to overtake Samsung as the world’s top smartphone seller thanks to the iPhone 17.


Plus, we’re joined by Which? to reveal why eight in ten Black Friday “bargains” are often the same price, or cheaper, at other times of the year – and how to shop smarter this weekend.
