He says – and This Writer agrees with him – that productivity is not a problem because if it was, the wealth of the super-rich in this country would not be expanding exponentially, as it is.

Here he is saying it:
Rachel Reeves – who is in the midst of a money scandal of her own at the moment – doesn’t want to tax the rich.
She will do anything rather than ask them to give back some of the money that they really don’t deserve to have.
Considering the revelations about her own professional behaviour, you should draw your own conclusions about her reasons.
