Wind in the righteous indignation and give your head a wobble, no one said shysters and spivs were the attributes of honest hard working people, what I said is the shysters and spivs love a useful idiot who tries to say their aggressive tax avoidance schemes are like a ordinary plebs ISA and this is similar, the vast, vast majority are completely unaffected by this
