Not for long I suspect. There has been a rather marked exodus of millionaires from Britain since July as a result of a range of fiscal changes promised by the government. Some significant businesses have decided to relocate. Unrelated to this: now it's been found that a majority of Brits receive more in benefits than they contribute in taxes. Not a good outlook. Meanwhile it's estimated that the richest 1% of earners already pay 29% of the country’s income tax.

Isn't it an automatic requirement of the income distribution?
The median not being the mean, and all.

This has been the case for decades. It's not news.
But surely it’s Labour’s fault anyway. Damn socialists.
