This leak is just one example of how selfish we've become as a society over the last thirty years, post-Thatcher. It's rare these days - almost unheard of - for people to publicly talk about the value of supporting others or of society in general.

So we get stuff like this, where the default behaviour of individuals and organisations in our society is self-centred greed and avoiding paying one's fair share for the effective functioning and improvement of society. Not good, and not sustainable in the long run.
