Who pays for those new buildings: or the lifestyles, salaries, expenses, and pensions?
Who pays for the limousines driven by security chauffeurs?

When Greece was being driven into the dirt by the infamous troika, one Christine Lagarde – head of the IMF – lectured the Greek people on their insufficient level of taxation – whilst she and anybody attached to her paid no tax.

It is this inability of people like Prem Sikka to see that there is no difference between the Rees-Moggs and the Lagardes of the world – we are pissed off with the lot of them.

If Mr Sikka is intent on a fair society, could he also focus on the unaccountable and unelected parasitic NGOs that pollute our democracy.

Whatever the outcome of May’s skullduggery The likes of Rees-Mogg and other Tories will not suffer financially hedging their financial investments against any kind of Brexit you can conceive of. Don’t forget Labour Parliamentarians like Lord Levy and Margaret Hodge are not without a bob or two and will have ensured their wealth is protected. I have an outstanding complaint about Lord Levy to the Labour Party but have heard nothing other than an acknowledgement!

All hidden off the books. Why would you want to hide the workers pensions and put them off balance sheet Prem?
