Having worked in public policy for several years, the 26-year-old Londoner had come to an alarming realisation about the future of the UK, the world – and the human species.
Several cannot mean two…but several can be 3. My sister called me to deal with “several” whatevers, I came over & there were 3 whatevers (can’t remember what it was), and I was like what the hell, sister, you said several & looked it up. Several sounds like 7, but it can mean 3 to idk, 9. It’s stupid.
For 3, most people would describe that quantity as “a few”.
No, I think that’s talking about Aria Babu, a person from London who’s changed the focus of her career to become a “pronatalist”. The woman in the photos is Simone Collins, and I haven’t read about her age. I’m usually the kind that reads the whole articles on links but I could only bring myself to skim through this lunacy.
She’s 26?
What is “several” defined as here? 2? 3?
You seem to have the same problem I do. 🤭 it turns out several is kind of a fucking useless term, meaning more than two but fewer than many in number or kind. So…it’s defined by a bunch of nonsense-fluff numbers.

That reminds me of when my 5 year old nephew started telling me a story by going, “Back when I was a little boy…”
It appears she was 26 when Malcolm proposed on reddit in 2013. She was born 1987, and he 1986.

Ah, I assumed it was about Collins. That’s on me for not looking up the article.
To be fair, it’s such a load of nonsense that it isn’t really worth reading…
Maybe it’s like 1.05 years, but that round up
