DMcG BS: Brexit & other UK political topics (4361* d) RE: BS: Brexit & other UK political topics 09 Jul 22


I wasn't talking about legalities. I was talking about the tax decisions the couple have made, which certainly seem to have largely been moves which favour their rich selves and their fellow wealthy

I agree wholeheartedly. Moral/Patriotic behaviour and lawful are not the same. If I have the power to make laws, I can choose how I want to behave, and what is most beneficial to me then write the laws so that is lawful. It means nothing. The Moral/patriotic choice is to do what is for the good of others/the country even though it could do you harm, because you judge the good of the country as more important then your own wallet.

It has been said 'patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel' (copyright a rather different Johnson)   To me, especially for those who make the law, 'it is lawful' runs a close second.
