Re: June 8th General Election
Speaking of the rich, John McDonnell appears to have redefined the word.

Quote:
People earning above £70,000 a year could be asked to pay more tax under a Labour government, shadow chancellor John McDonnell has suggested.
He said he wanted to see a "fair taxation system" with corporations and the rich paying more...
..."The rich will be above £70,000 to £80,000 a year - and that's roughly defined as what people feel is an earning whereby people feel they can pay more."

I'm not sure if £70-80k is "rich" - comfortable, perhaps, but not rich.
I wonder who the "people" are that feel this?
ymmv
