'Most intelligent' place to live is named - and it's not Oxford or Cambridge
An interactive map shows you how many school children go on to study for a degree at university where you live and the figure can be compared with different areas of the country It's famous as the home of Wembley and as the most ethnically-diverse area in the country but it has also been named as the "smartest" or "most intelligent" place to live. The London borough of Brent is the cleverest place in England based on academic results - with more than five out of six school children going on to study for a degree at university. A total of 7,272 students who went to local authority-maintained schools in the area between the 2015/16 and 2020/21 academic years went on to study a degree. That works out as 84% who completed their 16 to 18 study at a school in Brent. It's the highest ratio of any council area in England, giving Brent a claim to be the country's brightest town. Perhaps surprisingly, Oxfordshire and Cambridgeshire rank lower than Brent, despite being home to the two oldest, wealthiest and most prestigious universities in the UK. You can see how your area compares by using our interactive map. Brent has been identified as the most ethnically diverse area in the country by place of birth - only 43.9 per cent of people in the area were born in the UK, which is lower than any other local authority. The borough has the highest proportion of Irish residents in the country and also large Indian, Brazilian and Afro-Caribbean communities. Famous former pupils of schools in Brent include George Michael, David Baddiel and Twiggy. The London boroughs of Redbridge and Ealing aren't far behind Brent though, with 83% of pupils having gone on to study a degree over the same time period. Harrow and Kensington and Chelsea are next at 82% each, followed by Barnet at 80% then Merton, Sutton and Southwark at 80% each. Rutland has the highest ratio outside of London (78%) followed by Buckinghamshire (77%), Reading (74%) and Buckinghamshire (74%). Meanwhile, elsewhere in England, Trafford (73%) and Manchester (72%) have the highest ratios in the North. Knowsley has the lowest ratio of students making it to study a degree. Only 40% of pupils to complete their 16 to 18 study at local authority maintained schools in the area went on to study a degree. Swindon fared slightly better at 42%, followed by Hartlepool (44%), Portsmouth (46%) and Barnsley (also 46%).

Transform your cabbage with this simple 20-minute recipe by adding 2 simple ingredients
Cabbage is a divisive vegetable, with some people loving its earthy taste, and others detesting it. But one food expert has shared a simple hack for making cabbage taste delicious Cabbage is a vegetable that often draws comparisons to Marmite - it's either adored or despised. This polarising opinion stems from its strong smell, plain taste, and if overcooked, a horrible mushy texture. However, every food, particularly the less favoured vegetables, can be made tasty with the right cooking method and there are alternative ways to prepare cabbage that enhance its flavour rather than just boiling it. We've discovered a recipe that will make you fall in love with cabbage and have you reaching for seconds. A culinary expert at Downshiftology shared that with just two simple ingredients, you can transform this modest vegetable into a delectable dish that's rich, savoury, and packed with flavour in just 20 minutes, reports the Express. Ingredients One large green cabbage (one that feels heavy for its size and has tightly packed leaves) One yellow onion Garlic cloves (to taste) Ghee (you can also use butter or oil) Sharing their reasoning for using ghee, the food expert said: "Cooking with ghee is my go-to method. Unlike butter, which can burn easily when sautéed too long, or olive oil, which lacks that sweet, rich flavour, ghee offers the best of both worlds. "Some like to mix butter and oil to raise the smoke point, but honestly, ghee does the job perfectly on its own-it's stable at high heat and brings a delicious buttery taste." Ghee is a type of clarified butter that is rich in milk fat and has a longer shelf life than regular butter. It's made by simmering butter and removing the milk solids and water, resulting in a concentrated, golden-yellow liquid with a nutty flavour. It is typically used in a host of dishes, particular in Indian food, where it originated from. Method Start by heating ghee in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the onions and sauté them for about a minute, just until they soften. Add the garlic and continue cooking until it releases its aroma. Then, introduce the cabbage to the skillet. Cook it for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it softens and develops a beautiful caramelised colour. Lastly, season with salt and pepper to your liking. Give everything a good mix to combine, and serve. Savour sautéed cabbage as an accompaniment to chicken, lamb chops or alongside a traditional shepherd's pie. Alternatively, enjoy it as a one-pan meal with shredded meat or as part of a hearty breakfast. If you have any cabbage left over, it can then be used once more in a variety of dishes, particularly soups.
