I was reading the Evening Standard on the tube yesterday, and the editorials were full of scathing comments about Brown's policies to scare off rich people away from the UK - "our position as a tax-haven for the rich is good for us, was hard to obtain, and is threatened by any measure that hurts the rich."

You may not realise that the Evening Standard is the sister paper to the Daily Mail and has a very similar mix of "Little Middle Englander-ism" mixed with pro-GlobCorp right-wing neoliberal political views.
