Let Them Eat Cake, And More Of It For Their Money

"Most people will suffer not at all in this recession: on the contrary they will do well as prices fall and the real value of their earnings rises."

So writes Polly Toynbee.

She has been mocked for it, but only by her entirely appropriate targets, "the Tories and their press", who think (or like to pretend that they think) that everyone is on at least one hundred thousand pounds per year.

And who are horrified that life's essentials, and even a few little luxeries, might become affordable to the rest of us.
