Re: The UK really has gone to the dogs
... Readers will no doubt accuse us of being spoiled....
A 'journalist', receiving £80,000 and £100,000 a year, thinks she is entitled to this (she's not) and a lifestyle beyond her means. Somehow I think few will cry when she loses her cushy position to someone who will do the same (minor) job for £25k.

Are you not horrified some cannot afford designer shoes and a taxi? I blame socialist wealth redistribution.

She should emigrate. You can live like a king in Oz on 100K (Quote from my interview for a job back in 2007)
