Boinggg.
The Palace of Westminster Clock Tower - commonly referred to as "Big Ben" - is falling over apparently. Due to subsidence - in no small part caused by excavations over the years connected with the Underground - the top is now some 18 inches out from the vertical. No need to panic though, at it's present rate of movement it will be a thousand years or more before it becomes a serious problem. No, the more pressing question - as raised by somebody on the Web - is which way is it leaning? To the right or to the left??
