I'm really pleased that the accusations against Farage are quite rightly not going away. He appears very, very rattled and deservedly so.
This is very long overdue.

Millionaires group urge Reeves to introduce wealth tax to ‘lift kids of out poverty’.
But Govts listen to the City type.
1% have more wealth than 70% of the population.
Poorest 20% pay higher proportion of income in taxes than the richest 20%.
Can't grow economic by squeezing the bottom 50%.
