Superstar Premium

Interesting review of Britain's super rich on the BBC News site. People in all kinds of professions are taking advantage of a phenomenon known as the Superstar Premium to earn mega salaries. Examples of musicians, footballers and chefs are used to show how growing audiences and developments in technology haved increased their earning power. There is an attempt to justify such earnings in that the money has to be spent on things the rest of society produces and, therefore, it is disseminated to everyone else.

Hi Jonesey!!
I couldn't remember your e-mail address, so il ask you on here!

In regards to my coursework Ive been looking for data/graph/chart (anything basically) to show regional income and regional employment in the UK. I remember you showing some slides about these two things on one of your powerpoints. Would you be able to find the data for me because i want to link this info back to ticket prices in different parts of the UK to show geographical analysis - what we talked about before!? hope you understand what I mean! cheers jonesey!

P.S. you have no chance against Wycombe sir!!!!
