Interesting story here about supposedly poor amenities for those in new build housing...
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-45970349
One guy moaning that his nearest shop is a mile away. The second geezer bleating that it's a 20 minute walk to his local shop. Even worse than that, the Beeb think such laziness is commendable and worthy of a news story.
I'd think nothing of walking either of those journeys for a paper and a pint of cow juice, or hopping on my bike. In fact, this is ideal bike journey territory for otherwise non-cyclists. Why isn't BBC journalism mentioning that not everyone feels the need to drive 1 mile journeys in a car, and present a balanced piece of reporting for a change.
More proof that society and the planet are doomed, and when civilisation does collapse the Beeb will report on how unfair it is that people's nearest escape rocket to Mars is a 20 minute walk away.
