UK's super-rich 'getting richer'

[Enuff]

The UK's super-rich have never been richer, according to this year's Sunday Times Rich List.

The top 1,000 richest people in the country now have more than £400bn between them, it estimates - up almost £53bn in the last year.

Forty of the top 75 are foreign. Indian steel tycoon Lakshmi Mittal is top again with £27.7bn, up £8bn on 2007.

And what about poor Richard.

Times are harder for UK figures such as Virgin boss Sir Richard Branson, whose fortune dropped by £400m to £2.7bn.

Sir Richard has dropped nine places in the list, down from 11th in 2007 to 20th.

No i don't believe it how can it be true i have been told many times from labour supporters that only the conservatives oversee such a situation (sarcasm).

All the obscene profits have to go some where I suppose.... it's a pity they don't get taxed properly too....

I wish they could share out their money....I could do with some right now.
