6 d. ago Time’s up for tinny tunes and blaring football highlights. London's headphone cavalry has arrived | Hugh Muir

The capital’s transport authority will erect signs aimed at noisy mobile phone users. Might the next stop be relative calm and a bit more civility?There is that scene in so many westerns films, of the kind forever playing on daytime TV, when all seems lost but suddenly the cavalry comes riding over the horizon.The cavalry came to save me this week and they were wearing the uniforms of Transport for London, which runs the buses and many of the railways in the capital.

But that’s what some psychologists in Spain are calling the childcare burden faced by older people in that country, where 35% of people over the age of 65 take care of their grandchildren several days a week. In my London neighbourhood, the sight of a grandparent pushing a baby in a buggy, or a toddler in a swing, is fairly common, but in Madrid, even more so. The latest Europe-wide survey, in 2016, found the proportion of over 65s undertaking childcare at least several days a week in southern European countries – Spain especially, but also in Italy and Greece – is much higher than in France (13%) and Germany (15%) or the UK (18%).This is the result of historical cultural norms of shared care between generations, but now some Spanish grandparents are fighting back.
