The Spectator discovers a grievance it hasn't yet monetised

Douglas Murray laments that 'ageing' has become a permitted insult, in a magazine that has built a small empire identifying which insults are permitted.

Murray reckons 'ageing' is the last acceptable slur, which is a hell of a discovery from a bloke whose entire career has been an extended treatise on which slurs are coming back into fashion. The Spectator's found a grievance for every demographic now — they're running a lost-and-found for hurt feelings and calling it cultural commentary.
