A common trait amongst Grauniad writers I find. Lots and lots of
analysis of the problem but as you say no solutions. I should say "used
to find" because I stopped reading it many years ago because of this.
Poly Toynbee was the main culprit ISTR.

Yes. I can see you wanting some journalist to give you a nice easy
solution.

Problem stating is very easy Ideal for useless lefties.


Very easy to describe a problem.

Exactly so I don't need to read pages and pages of whining to know what
it is.
Knowing how to solve it a different
matter. That requires specialist skills. Just why you expect a journalist
to have them I'm not quite clear. Perhaps you've been reading the Mail etc
for too long. They tend to give the solution to a problem their readers
just know is right.

I forget, you've never worked in the real world.

But still feel the need to bring it up on a group where it is totally OT.
Wishing to inflict on others things you no longer read. Says it all,
really.
