    Yes, well that's no surprise. The wealthy have their propaganda wing (Telegraph, Mail, Sun, Express etc) out in the field generating hysteria about impact of tax changes/non-dom status etc.

    ... and even 'progressive' press have been running endless articles on 'Why #WealthTax won't work'

    Water profiteering

    (while rivers & seas pollution and drought bans because of unplugged leaks and unbuilt reservoirs continue apace)

    avoids all weak attempts to stop it which begs the question are ministers corrupt and expecting later reward via directorships etc etc
