well in this country we have posh peoples law. I remember when we had a record out in Germany . the generally held view was that we would get at least three times as much loot as if the record company was English - in other countries ordinary folk are more protected.

In this country, the monied classes have a licence to rip us all off. And that is of course why Murdoch wants the politicians in his pocket - they take care of him.

if you want fair remuneration for your work, or protection from moneyed villlains - we get all the usual bleating about the 'politics of envy' - the Thatcherite war cry.

Bloody crooks, the lot of them!
