...is that the same? If I simply raise the level of something it just goes up (ie anywhere on the line /) and may still be lower than the highest comparable, but my 'understanding' of levelling up is to level off at the highest comparable level (ie to take _ to - )
Gove seems to be suggesting the other method, which is to cover the void with decking and leave it to someone else to patch up when it rots in a few years.
And in the meantime, you usually get rats nesting under the decking

I think you've answered your own question there @steveTu. If you like Levelling Up as a term, fair enough. I find it ridiculous but each to their own and I'm happy enough to agree to disagree.
Presumably "Level up" is intended to signify moving up the lower levels to that of the top. Simply 'levelling' could be seen as moving everybody to the current median and that would indicate far too many losing out, and that would be extremely unpopular.
Why not just say "raising" then ? Levelling is just that - making everyone/everywhere equal. If that is the intention, why not just say that ? I have yet to see at what level the Govt think we should be at and what is classed as the current median - info on that seems to be in short supply. Levelling could be seen as every region having the same infrastructure, job opportunities, housing - not very likely really. I think it is simply the phrase which gets my goat - bit like the We got Brexit done - they didn't, still arguing
My cumudge today is the state of some of the soil in our back garden. About 50 years ago what seems like most of the garden was tarmacked and subsequently the tarmac was covered by horrid clay subsoil to a depth of about 40cm. On top of the clay (but only in some areas) is relatively normal soil. It has taken me about six hours to dig out enough of the horrid stuff to make a hole big enough to plant one of my new bargain Trevor White roses. Luckily the other 2 are going in a much kinder area.
I think Amazon miss me. I try not to use them anymore but they sent me a £5 off a £15 purchase voucher as well as a £6 offer if I bought a gift card. I bought some plant fertilisers and other stuff that were on sale and it cost £9 for about £30 worth of stuff. I bet Bezos is crying all over his brand new £350m super-yacht right now
If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
Can't find the Covid thread so I'll ask my question here. Travelled on public transport to get a haircut. I don't need to say more. My question is, when should I take a LFT to see if I got away with it?

Appearances would suggest otherwise.
