Tower Hamlets Fat Cats!
Filed Under My Rants | Leave a Comment
Everybody complains that it’s the bankers in the City that are the fat cats in London. Well not so!
Look at this interesting little fact I discovered today.
£52,786 is what a traffic warden in Tower Hamlets earned last year including bonuses.
That’s where our tax pounds are going…into the pockets of the fat cat “gutter bandits”. It’s no wonder unskilled and uneducated members of our society are queuing up to get a job as a traffic warden. What a great way to earn so much money without having to study hard and take examinations in finance, like the City workers are having to do just to keep their jobs!
Nice work Tower Hamlets…
