Gardening can be much like refactoring. Often you plan to only pull a few of the more obvious weeds out, then end up realising everything is brambles.

Donald Trump has called Boris Johnson a "friend" who "says very good things about me". This is what Boris Johnson said about then candidate Trump when he was London Mayor three years ago.
