One of the great tweets from blessed memory: ‘the Uk is a strange land where people think £100k is a very high salary but also £1m is a normal price for a family home’

Fine. So long as every family affected by the 2 child limit receives a back-dated payment to reflect the money they've missed out on.

I like the Carry On films but the lore is too confusing, impossible for modern audiences to accept these people could play a major part in the French Revolution AND lose their bras on camping holidays

It will never not be compelling to me that the same people who produced Goldeneye - a fun, campy Bond in which Bond is both younger than he was in Licence to Kill but also apparently was around in it, also said “you know what Bond needs? Lore!” in the 2020s.
“It’s impossible to reboot Bond” says production team who decided Bond first got his licence to kill in the 21st Century, as Daniel Craig, then got incredibly old within two films and was being put out to pasture, but also had Sean Connery’s 1960s car.
It’s Bond. Just do whatever the fuck you like.

Important to be clear here that the proposed homes wouldn't mean demolishing the 18th century garden - it's just that they might possibly be visible from it. What appallingly selfish behaviour.

So the BBC is biased against Donald Trump? Ok? Fine? It’s also biased against Vladimir Putin or Erdogan or Orban or or or, your point being?

That “none of them spoke of it” trope feels a particularly modern conceit. My Grandad was always happy to talk about it.
