At Least He Doesn't Speak German

A man who raped his daughters repeatedly over a quarter of a century and had nine children by them (from nineteen pregnancies) has been sentenced to life imprisonment. Relatively few insights into the national character have thus far emerged from the case, although since the family resides north of Oxford and Cambridge there's always hope that Policy Exchange might have a few words to say upon the dire consequences of urban regeneration. Still, it is noted that at one point "the defendant offered his younger daughter £500 to have another child with him"; a tribute to centuries of fair play and entrepreneurial spirit.
