As John Burn-Murdoch (FT) notes, across the UK, in general, inequality hasn't risen particularly over that last two decades, but... what has risen is the inequality between the top 1% & the rest of us....

Nevertheless, concerns about inequality are still germane, given the rates of poverty we see across the UK...

But we might also suspect what actually drives middle-class (media) concern with inequality, actually is the pulling away of their super-rich neighbours in London?
