Genuinely curious, but do we know how many more people became millionaires in this country during the same period?

Reading about what is going on in France it is a similar story there as well. They are already saying they will not cooperate if the right ( to them wrong) party get into power.
I don't mean austerity measures, but there are plenty of savings to be made in places, before they even need to look at more taxes or just chucking money at problems.
They were/are a significant factor in Brexit dragging out as it has.
Yes, if we don't get the result we want let's smash up Maccy Ds too.
Don't forget the Jimmy Saville Factor when he was DPP..........
The majority of those millionaires weren´t paying income tax in the UK - they were in the UK because of the non-dom tax regime, that Hunt changed to try and match Labour.
Most of them didn´t even physically leave the UK - so they´ll continue buying things, they just relocate registration of their assets to Singapore, for example.
16yo’s have grown up being part of Europe, maybe, just maybe, they did have strong opinions about a vote that affects them for much longer then it will a bunch of silly old ****s like half this board, me included, who’ll be saying goodbye to it all before long.
They will have to raise more to fund some of their promises. Though they have already rowed back on some.
Blair had the luxury when he came in of inheriting a relatively healthy economy. He then kept a load of spending off the books by using vastly more PFI leaving problems down the line. Starmer won’t inherit such a rosy situation. There is already talk of more PFI.
Having strong opinions doesn’t mean they are the right ones.
A lot of other things are covered in this video, but there's a piece on cover ups which is pretty appalling.

Thats a massive massive generalisation.... to the point its bollocks.... maybe 10% do that but "MOST" bullshit
You can’t know that.
BTW, do you pay tax here or in Norway? Just asking as was reading an interesting article about taxation in Norway.
Agree - although I will vote for the reasons someone set out earlier - someone somewhere died so I have a right to vote
Yeah when Labour lose there is always some kind of phony angst about us not having PR or an AV system. But when they had 13/14 years under Blair and Brown did PR get a second thought?
