Trickles down to my colleague. Then from that incremental amount of money, 40% will probably go in tax. Then, of the remainder, 40%, maybe 50%, will go in housing costs and transportation costs, commuting costs. So it works out that in order to buy my colleague a trip to the Koh-i-Noor, a client has to give us about 250 quid.

I mean, it's amazing that capitalism functions at all when you look at the extent to which, you know, money goes in and then incidental costs, particularly property – I'm Georgist, okay – particularly, you know, property costs.

I did make the joke that voting Labour and having a chancellor who's come from the Bank of England is a bit like going on a Club 1830 holiday and taking your parents along, which it kind of defeats the object of the exercise a bit in that one of the things I think we would like to see as voters, and I'm perfectly happy to give this government a, you know, I think you have to give the people the benefit of a few years before you get pissy about it.
