The Super-Rich and Us

Jacques Peretti looks at why the wealthy were drawn to Britain and meets the super-rich themselves, from those buying premiership football clubs to the billionaires who are breaking ranks to criticise the decisions that made them richer.

Jacques investigates how inequality was pinpointed as a business opportunity. He also looks at how work life was made more unstable in the 1970s to drive a new 1980s profit culture, and how an acceptance of huge executive bonuses was manufactured.
