Off the back of last week’s tone deaf article on buying a house by moving somewhere cheaper. I present making the energy companies pay the £700 increase by investing £18,000 in their shares 😂

sorry @FurbleSocksfurble i think the tone deafness might be contagious - no one else can see that article unless they have a times subscription.

It's the share token link so it should work.

I assume you're making a dig at the concept of a Times subscription but I also know there are many ways a person can view a Times article without having a subscription themselves. Such as someone on a forum sharing it perhaps.

Thanks @FurbleSocks I was able to successfully read the article from your share token link.

It's not tone deaf if it's relevant to their readership. The Times has a lot of readers for whom this will be relevant.

I can see it just fine with no subscription.

I read the article in an actual hard copy and it reminded me why I don't fit their demographic (couldn't even do the bloomin' crossword fhs).
