From the business page in yesterday's Observer - but the Tories and their echo chambers in the press tell us that it is train drivers and junior doctors who are greedy, over-paid, and cause inflation!Obviously, we're all grown ups so i'm not going to insult anybody by putting up graphs but we all know that wealth inequality is increasing hugely year on year and has been for the last couple of decades. You either have to believe that is justifiable and try to capture the people who have suffered from it, with simple slogansor it is not, and if not, where should it be regulated. And how should that regulation be defined ?
I appreciate that for both yourself and myself this isn't quite as intense as it may be for some others, and wouldn't suffer as much and consequently not be so susceptible to simple grifters but it's an interesting question
. A series of crashes that brought down businesses, we produced the worst goods in the developed world, rising unemployment, mass industrial disputes, ascending nations such as Italy laughed at us as “the sick man of Europe”.
