The Ambridge Socialist
11th April
The Editor of the Ambridge Socialist, the weekly bulletin of news from the class struggle in Borsetshire has written to the Guardian exposing The Gills, current likely occupiers of Home Farm as Non Doms. They have not been heard of since a house warming party in 2019. We wonder if other absentee owners are planning to acquire property in the area and if so, for what financial purpose.
Silent characters in The Archers are a tradition (Letters, 6 April). However, there are wider lacunae too. In 2019, the Aldridges had to sell their farmhouse and move to a small place after Brian was fined a substantial sum for polluting the Am. The property was brought by a Birmingham business family who had a noisy house-warming party. Since then we have heard absolutely nothing of them. Presumably non-doms.
