Nationwide are offering their main current account holders a regular (monthly) savings account with 5% interest.
Even after tax that's a lot better than any of their ISA's.

French schools have been told to teach simplified spellings, so no accents on forêt , fenêtre etc. Which really is going to lose its charm

The reform has been 25 years in the making, it was voted in 1990 but only rolled out this year.
I'm really not sure muddling the Latin roots of words is going to help with spelling or learning foreign languages.

Probably more to do with how hard it can be to type accented characters on a keyboard. I know there are keys on French ones to access them quickly, but I expect it’s seen as too much effort, especially on mobile devices. The sooner the rest of the world catches up and uses English, the better.
