Another day another round of stories about mega-rich people moaning about having to pay tax and normal people who'd have to work for 30,000 years to earn a billion quid defending them.
Watched this last night and, while obviously horrendous subject matter, it was so well done. Gave voices to exactly the people who should be telling this story. www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...
