More warped thinking from the clueless PM. So how did I buy my house? My car? My private jet? (oops!)
So if you worked hard and bought something, Labour will determine that you are not "working people" and hammer you for tax! Welcome to real Labour!

The title isn't a quote though.
Sir Keir said he believed a working person was somebody who "goes out and earns their living, usually paid in a sort of monthly cheque" but they did not have the ability to "write a cheque to get out of difficulties".
Asked by Sky News' political editor Beth Rigby whether he would classify a working person as someone whose income derived from assets, such as shares or property, the prime minister said: "Well, they wouldn't come within my definition."
Sounds right to me.
Working people have shares. Has he never heard of the public sell offs of the family silver ?
Working folk who have earned enough from their skills and been prudent with their spending can also own properties, and not just their main residence.
His definitions seem somewhat off. He seems to be including only the lowest resource individuals in society, which, I suggest, is clearly wrong.

no that's further down:

They are clearly not a working person. But there are plenty of people who work and acquire assetts, he seems to think that is some sort of sin and those people should be punished for their endeavour.
Socialists hate prosperity, their voters are people who think and envy like they do. When people prosper they tend to see through socialism. That's why labour and socialists genarally hate it when people work hard to improve themselves. They want people to stay poor and hate those that bettered themselves. Of course they have no idea where the money to pay for their fantasies comes from. It comes from those they hate and seek to irradicate. When they find a magic money tree they do not think to take some of what it has and let it grow more money or even propagate its seed into new money trees. They take what is there and hack that tree down. Eventually they run out of the money trees but they never seem to connect the dots.
