By "working people" I assume you mean those on substantially above average earnings.

An early start tonight for OB's habitual insult of forum members despite knowing absolutely nothing about them.

It's entirely plausible to believe in a tax system based on the ability to pay without it being envy.

Dare I ask how the Conservative party deal with "supply side" issues with a diminishing currency and increased energy costs if it's not driving down living standards, wages and conditions for the Great British worker? (Which is unsurprisingly the part of the post you ignored).
