    I smell a rat.

    The image for this article, and the same family in slightly different poses, can be found across multiple websites.

    The image held within the archived Telegraph article seems to be a generic library image yet there appears to be no reference of this. The footnote of the image implies this is the “hard up” family.

      I don’t think it matters too much because what the family looks like isn’t important, but I agree that it seems intended to imply that that is a photo of the family

      It is pretty funny that they chose the most stock-photo-looking stock photo ever taken though

        It matters for journalistic integrity and it breaks the trust in factual reporting.

      Maybe they had to sell their photos to an agency so they could afford that 5th holiday. Times are hard.

      There is at least a real Telegraph article, but it’s odd that they seem to have used a stock photo, as you point out.

        Not that odd, if anything I thought it was strange that someone would give their name and their family’s image to a paper, particularly on a subject as contentious as this.

        “Al Moy” may also be a pseudonym. I wonder if “Al Moy” even exists.

        Also, while the Torygraph have pulled the article on their site, it’s still up on yahoo: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/earn-345k-soaring-private-school-090000096.html

          I read it as A I. Moy, which may be a clue to its origin.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
