Wall-to-wall coverage of a millionaire’s superyacht sinking yet, while I obviously sympathise with all the families and don’t underestimate their pain, if that was a boat full of poor people the media would have moved on by now to an octopus predicting the premier league winner.

If ex-F1 boss and tax avoider Bernie Ecclestone was a “cash in hand” builder he’d get real jail time. But because he’s up there in the 1% he gets off with a suspended sentence. Another example of inequality in Tory Britain (and much of the world) www.theguardian.com/sport/2023/o...
