Coincidently I nearly bought a real one this morning.

I love haggis with neeps and tatties. When my wife Morag who was Scottish was alive we used to buy them in Selfridges but these days the local supermarket sells them.

Taxman to target all £1m home owners in new anti-affluence crackdown as government widens net on tax

Taxman to target all £1m home owners in new anti-affluence crackdown as government widens net on tax dodgers

Everyone who owns a home worth £1 million or more will be targeted in a new ‘anti-affluence’ crackdown by the Coalition.

A beefed-up squad of computer and legal experts will pore over their property, savings and income. If they think the individual is not paying enough tax, they will have the power to knock on their front door and force them to account for every penny.

The move is part of a tax-dodging purge on the rich forced through by Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg.

Wouldn't be a bad idea

This whole scam runs from the traders who had prior knowledge of libor movements through to banks who lowered the rate to artificially support their balance sheets.

The subject of the OP concerns the former - not necessarily the banks.

On the subject of traders best read this : http://www.businessinsider.com/traders-accused-of-libor-rigging-keep-turning-up-at-swiss-hedge-funds-2012-7

What happened

was that October last year I toured Cuba for a few weeks. The other tourists included an Indian lady and a guy from Sri Lanka too. The lady seemed to suffix everything with isn't it. I asked the guy, who was as English as me anyway , why she did so and he laughed saying "your used to it as innit - she's using the full expression "isn't it" because she's well spoken.

In actual fact she was as English as me too. Funny old world - innit.

I've never used that expression myself but I'm the world's worst for saying whatever.
