The Guardian article is of course a bit of a hit piece, this is a video of his speech, which I guess you will ignore.

Isn't he the guy who dumps butter into his coffee because he thinks we should all be downing as much saturated fat as possible?

Think paying all the people they employ’s wages is redistribution of wealth, why should they just give money for free it’s ridiculous

Well when they earn many, many, many times more from the person actually doing the work if it is redistribution it's to the rich.

Any scientifically literate adult would ignore it yes

And I'm just pointing out that that's redistribution of wealth. You know, the thing capitalism doesn't want unless it's to them.

What the actual fuck are you going on about? I replied to a post about the tories only looking out for the rich, and gave clear, real examples of things they've done to help out working class families too..... and your reply is banging on about capitalism and socialism? Are you actually ok? Get a fucking grip and put the wine bottle away mate! Have a rest from the Internet for a bit. I don't know what angle you're coming at for a gotcha, but its a bit weird!

I thrust of his speech was basically that the medical profession is inordinately influenced by industry interests, he argued that drug vendors should be subject to independent verification of their results.

Anyway you do as you see fit and I shall do as I see fit.

Did he get kidnapped and told he was giving a speech in the USA, because that's what he's describing, not the UK.

Blame all the billionaires and rich people who have created all the big companies that employ everyone, same rhetoric every single time it’s hilarious. It’s almost as if you don’t want people to enjoy hard earned money

The employees created the wealth you not the other way around. Please list some notable contributions to the world by eg BlackRock

Very strange behaviour, making up a post then replying to the made up post.

Ok, let's deal with those then.

When the personal allowance is increased it actually benefits the rich most, as it means less of their income is in higher tax brackets. Also the same with upping the upper tax band. £42k at the time was well above the average wage (and still is) so actually benefits the rich and those on above average wages while poorer households get nothing from it at all.

What they're good at is making policies that on the face of it seem to be beneficial to 'normal' people but are in fact much more of a benefit for them and their rich mates.

I'd started to quote you on a post and then Dom, it's attributed his post to you

100% agree with you on this .... yet you believe in God. They don't really equate. Not trying to start another row btw, just seems mixed messages.
