Couldn't agree more. As long as a simple birthday card from London to Surrey takes over a week to arrive despite bearing a first-class stamp, this price hike is outrageous.

A beautiful, sad, tender story, the story of two boys who form a deep attachment at kindergarten age, but do not get together until late in life. Highly recommended. #WorldBookDay

£34 for the luxury of sending ten #Christmas cards to friends and family in Europe - and that's before buying the actual cards. Sad that a simple gesture like that has become such a luxury.
Lord, here are my hands
Place in them what you will
Remove from them what you will
Take them and lead me where you will
Your will be done, in everything.

The #REF2029 has called a #pause, so there's a delay in the publication of guidance modules. But the final submission deadline remains the same. Don't be tempted to stall - time to select and develop your front-running #impact case studies. Want any help? Email kristine.pommert(at)bulletin.co.uk.
That's the spirit, boys, carry on! #BMGSVW

Thank you, Sunder. Somebody needed to point that out. And even among those who've not acquired British citizenship, the vast majority are law-abiding and in many cases tax-paying members of their communities.
Over 11 million people were born abroad: more than 1 in 6 (ONS)
The Times is conflating "foreign-born" and "foreigners" when approx 4/10 people born abroad are British citizens now. (Oxford)

The charity's leadership says service users won't notice any changes.
I really hope that's true.
The work Samaritans volunteers do for people in dire personal circumstances is phenomenal.
