U.K. Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg rekindled differences with his Tory coalition partners over taxing the wealthy, saying there’s more scope to raise money from the top 10 percent of earners.
“Most people in this country don’t understand why people who have very high-value property don’t pay their fair share,” Clegg said in an interview on BBC Radio 5 today. “It’s easier to stop tax avoidance on bricks and mortar than on money you can move around the world.”
