Why the Guardian is going down the pan!


Middle class people (doctors, company directors) whose hobby is furnishing their house(s - I’m assuming a few of these people will have second homes as it’s the Lifestyle section) for free.

All very noble from a sustainability perspective but perhaps the Guardian could have remembered that for many people furnishing your home for nowt isn’t a lifestyle choice, it’s a necessity.

From the writer's "About Me":
Like most of London, I packed my bags and headed to Margate for a life of sunsets, beach swims, and glasses of wine that don’t cost £9.
Another DFL that'll find out what Margate's really like in Winter.
 
You can get a kindle for 40 quid. An accessible affordable tablet + eReader. This doesn't make Amazon nice of course but maybe it's another reason why they're popular.
I fully get they are popular because they are cheap. There is a reason why they are cheap and as a consequence, I don't want anything to do with those tax avoiding slavers.

Not apple or Samsung, but still a reasonably ethical brand in Nokia. I know it's not perfect, but it's not the worst. Mrs Tag went the full monty with a farephone.
