That Explains the Food Banks

Britain now has more billionaires per head of population than any other country, even democratic ones like Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. This is according to a list compiled by the Sunday Murdoch, which is based only on "identifiable wealth"; presumably the figures would be even better than stated had the Sunday Murdoch been able to include the sort of confidential wealth that results from the more ethically permissible forms of tax avoidance. The Sunday Murdoch list also excludes bank accounts, to which News Corporation has no access now that so many of its hackers are occupied at the Old Bailey. "The richest people in Britain have had an astonishing year," gushed the list's compiler. "While some may criticise them, many of these people are at the heart of the economy and their success brings more jobs and more wealth for the country", much more so than all those nasty, common immigrants who come over here merely to work, and who are feckless enough to pay their taxes instead of dodging them.
