The have's and the have not's. Wealth inequality is the rat that has chewed up the social contract, but is a wealth tax going to address it and if not then how do we pull on the levers available in our current system to do so and perhaps most importantly, what are the implications for social cohesion if we don't?
Joining us again in the tortoise shack to talk about these big questions is listener favourite, Prof Richard Murphy. We talk why what looks good in theory doesn't work in reality and we go through some of his 30 (yes 30!) solutions to fixing the imbalance. Another belter from Richard.
