There are 109 paid members of the government (there’d be more if the figure wasn’t limited by law), and, as we’ve come to learn, each has their own definition of what constitutes “working people”.
This includes non-definition definitions, such as the one most recently offered by the chancellor, Rachel Reeves: “I don’t think we need to define more than that, really. We made a commitment in our manifesto to not increase those taxes. We didn’t last year. It remains our commitment for this parliament.”
