The reason the top 10% of income earners pay more than half of all tax revenue is NOT because they are taxed more than ever.
Their tax rate has been cut FIVE times in the last 25 years.
They are paying more because their INCOME has increased astronomically, where the income of the bottom half has

A much more accurate headline - and one that would certainly remove the implied sneer and anglo-centrism - would be: can Britain learn from Ireland when it comes to problem drinking.
But of course that would mean the BBC considering the UK could ‘learn’ from a former colony… imagine …

Don't you just love Labour's "pragmatic u-turns" on manifesto pledges?

Why no 'pragmatic' U-turn' on nationalising water, energy, rail rolling stock companies and freight; ending privatisation of the NHS and social care; taxing the super rich?

Interesting! What we're seeing with all this new data is that the Brexit damage is only getting worse as time goes on. Companies aren't "adjusting", they're either leaving, downscaling or going under. From manufacturing to services to culture to farming and fishing, the decline is snowballing.
