Your basically knocking someone for being in the same job and house for over 30 years, and circumstances beyond his control inflating the value of his house and pension.
My house value, savings, and various pension funds add up to just over a million pounds, but strangely enough, I don’t feel like a millionaire...

He hasn't earned any of it by "real" work or living in the real world. Getting into a safe Labour seat and that was pretty much it. He and a lot in Labour, don't understand how businesses have to operate. They don't understand how to create revenue and limits costs. To them, money is just handed to them on a plate, with no consequences.

Having targets and aims do not suggest falsifying documents. Without targets and commissions, people would simply sit on their backsides doing nothing and still earn money. The top people wouldn't want to lose money from those falsified documents, would they? In the short term, they might benefit, but it soon unravels. Just as Government overspending and borrowing does.
