The Sun's Page 3 again returns to all things tax today, with 24-year-old Becky bravely declaring that she delighted that that Government has temporarily raised the SDLT threshold.
'It should kick-start the housing market,' she adds.
Why 'bravely', you might ask.
Well, for a start, she's stating her opinion while wearing little more than a brittle smile.
More to the point, her view is in direct opposition to that of business editor Ian King, who (on page nine) writes that latest move by the Chancellor will 'have a minimal impact'.
It's likely that Mr King holds more sway around The Sun's editorial desks than young Becky.
But, then, he's not as blonde, pretty or - one hopes - busty as his rival.
One looks forward to the next thrilling episode in this gripping battle of salty dogmata.
