Following the recent Billionaire's Budget thought it would be a good idea to set up a thread where we can all record examples of where very rich people having even more money has benefitted us normal folks.

At the moment the Trickle Down Effect just sounds like they are pissing on us, but I very much look forward to hearing all the lovely heart-warming stories of bankers passing on their bonuses to us plebs or business owners paying the heating bills for all their workers etc.

Go...
 
I think that there is a deliberate spelling mistake here - trickling down should be tricking down. Anything from Westminster that is meant to benefit the people north of Birmingham is a classic case of 'smoke 'n mirrors, delivered by the biggest bunch of snake oil salesmen since the heyday of the Wild West.
 
As a non-working but tax-paying pensioner, I stand to benefit from the mini-budget to the sum of £3.61. Not per day, not per week or per month, but annually. From my estimated energy increase, that just leaves a balance of £756.39 to find.
The new chancellor did not confirm he would restore the triple-lock next year. As he is 6' 5", I believe I have been "trickled" on from a great height.
 
If every one of our first team put the extra money they’ll get into a pot, that could be used to trickle down to match going fans by discounting tickets. I reckon every league ticket could be about £7 cheaper if my calculations are correct.

What a nice gesture that would be. £150 off everyone’s season ticket courtesy of the players! Wonder when we will get the email confirming it.
