Talking of rich lists, I've just been reading about the wealth of Britain's aristocracy, top of the list is the new Duke of Westminster who has inherited £9.5billion and is still raking it in hand over fist, it didn't help his dad though who snuffed it aged only 64.

The Socialist Party of Venezuela, first under Hugo Chavez and now under Nicolas Maduro, has held the country's presidency for 18 years, since Chavez swept into office at the end of 1998.

But recent years have been tumultuous for the PSUV, the Socialist Party's initials in Spanish.


Another one of my senior moments doh

Sorry Derek.


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

Yes, hierarchy is bound to exist and so are pay differentials BUT what is unsustainable is the higher paid getting bigger PERCENTAGE pay rises than the poorer paid. This isn't a political point, it is simple arithmetic. All the money ends up in a few peoples pocket at the cost of the rest which drives poverty. You see this in some Arab nations where the country is very rich but the poverty levels are stupidly high.
