Grammar
Register switching and connectors in formal writing
Switching between impersonal and personal constructions and layering connectors such as 'notwithstanding' and 'in the light of' to control distance and tone
- Notwithstanding the progress made, structural inequalities persist.

Cultural notes
British broadsheet prose favours short paragraphs and a direct personal voice; the reader is addressed with civil but plain argumentation. Connectors are lighter than in Romance prose, with tone carried by word choice and rhythm.
