America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth.
The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth.
When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Watched BBC 6 o clock news. Just a completely unserious broadcast. Chris Mason, acting like a children's entertainer, giving a prolonged impenetrable editorial. Not a whiff of informative content about the Budget or what it means for the country. Just playschool blah blah bollocks.

This morning's top headline on Today:
"Robert Jenrick has accused the government of a total dereliction of duty after two inmates were mistakenly released".
The release of a prisoner is news. What Jenrick says about it is comment.
Both have a place, but only one of those is in the headlines.
