In the most surprising development ever, a group of twenty rightwing economics claimed that the poor starving masses of the UK superrich are paying too much tax and will throw their toys out of the pram and move to Switzerland if this doesn’t change. Serious journalists call this news, sensible people the inevitable result of not having strung up some of the more cheeky bankers and foolish economists way back when the crisis first started. The crisis never really scared the rich once it became clear public anger would limit itself to angry muttering, but their courtiers in the media had been a bit more circumspect for a few years. That they’re now back in force means they think it’s business as usual again.
They’ll be surprised.
