They could do a wealth tax. Imagine that.

Just means they'll tax us through the back door rather than the front door. I have no doubt most people will be worse off after the next budget, not better off.

All for the greater good of the posh tw@ts. Their yachts need refurbishments.

I always find the backdoor more objectionable.

Just relax. It only hurts the first time.
