    I bet if you shook a couple castles and country houses you could scrounge up a few pounds.

      Not necessarily. A lot of the old aristocracy isn’t all that wealthy any more. Not uncommon to hear stories where only a handful of rooms in a country house are occupied because they can’t afford to heat the rest.

      If we want to raise taxes the real target should be tackling the tax avoidance of enterprise.

      Time to dissolute a few modern day monasteries.
