It doesn't look too dissimilar to maps showing which way people vote
The affluent areas on that map are mostly Tory heartlands, the povvo areas, Labour.

lemon drizzle can be brilliant
No it won't affect me, but the point the lib dems are making is tht people are gaining wealth through house price rises and not being taxed on it. So wtf is capital gains tax then?

Also it will massively punish those living in London the South East compared to therest of the country.

They don't seem to get that just because you live in a multi-million pound house, it doesn't mean you have millions in the bank.
There are lots of people who have inherited or widdowed a big home, one they've lived in all their lives, who are struggling to keep the up-keep of such a property. "They can just downsize then" is as heartless in this area as it is for people on the other end of the scale who can't afford their council homes.

I honestly think people who make desisions for the gov are living in a different planet, they're so far removed from a normal life that it's rediculous. I think the MPs and what-not need to try living in a council house on benfits for a month to see what it's really like. And for that matter, the journelests who imply that everyone on benfits has an easy ride too.
