'They' don't need anymore money, they may WANT more money, but they certainly don't need it. 

I did say I doubt they see it that way. IF they want a bigger house they need more money. If they want richer friends they need more money. If they want more power they need more money. If they want more houses, more cars more Jets they need more money. 

 

Its all about perspective. We could say that we dont need more money, but we certainly all want more.

Sam Tarry binned by Labour for turning up on a picket line, I might be wrong, but wasn't the Labour Party formed through trade unions.

Starmer knows that most people couldn’t give a stuff for the unions, and if he wants a shot at the title he’s got to distance himself from the Bolsheviks. Surprised he’s kept the ginger bird in a position of power.

So he basically screwed others out of a job and safeguarded his own? What shining example of altruism. 🙄

Are you spreading your wealth Andrew ?  To be honest I don't know what he was worth but whatever it is he earned it .
