Quick Glance: Wolves in Britain: A Crazy Idea
- Should we release packs of hungry wolves into the English countryside?
- The answer is so obviously 'of course not, are you insane?' that I anticipated no disagreement when I scoffed at a pro-wolf Guardian article by George Monbiot last week.
- Monbiot has found common cause with wolves because he hates sheep-farming and wants to 'rewild' Britain.

Quick Glance: Johnson is set to receive a £18,000 pay-off, although this will be swamped by private-sector wages.
- Boris Johnson is entitled to a £18,000 golden goodbye and an annual stipend of up to £115,000 after resigning as Prime Minister.
- Mr Johnson will earn £18,860 in severance pay for resigning, which is a fifth of his prime ministerial salary of £75,440.
- Ministerial and PM pensions are calculated at 1/40th or 1/50th of an individual's last salary in the job, thus the most Mr Johnson could have contributed directly during his five years in office would have been roughly £9,000.
