Class Action, Indeed

£50 was how much you had to burn in front of a homeless person if you wanted to be let into the Bullingdon Club. No doubt, it still is.

While these parties were going on, then people who were doing the same thing were being fined 10 grand, although even that much would hardly hit Rishi Sunak in the wallet, would it?

Still, this is all very low level. It is not like being late for an appointment at the Job Centre because the bus was late. You would be docked more than six times as much for that, and rightly so.

How about a class action to reduce everyone's fixed penalty notices for breach of the lockdowns to the same level as those imposed on the Prime Minister and on the Chancellor of the Exchequer? No suggestion that there should never have been any such penalties. Just that everyone's should have been the same.
