The Policy Exchange thing

Did I miss something? I'm far from being an expert when it comes to the economy but that just sounds stupid.
Shouldn't it be the other way around (encouraging people from the South to move North) to keep things moving up there? There's too much of a North/South divide already.

Even if there was space down here, how could they possibly afford it? I'm down here because my are of work is concentrated down here but I really wouldn't mind living up North. Lower cost of living, an actual countryside and so forth.

Well, duh

Traditional names are dying out (BBC News)

It's just a sign of the times, changing fashions and all that. There are popular names in every generation (mine was very common in my age group) and there will always be some that are considered old-fashioned.
Of the English names on this dying out list, I know one Norman and none of the female names. To be honest, I can't imagine a young girl with the name Gertrude or Edna.

Is it sad that names are dying out? Yes, but I'm sure they'll come round again.
People should be more concerned about silly names like "Number 16 bus shelter".

Something else that needs to be said

To be honest, it could go either way. At least Richard O'Brien is involved so let's hope he'll have some say in the casting and production. There have been some rather good theatre productions in recent years so they might go from there.
