Here is an article in Daily Mail that nicely illustrates that newspaper's tendency to make
ad hominem attacks. The suggestion seems to be that a rich person who is leftwing is a hypocrite. It is a standard Daily Mail smear, of course, to attack lefties for being hypocrites and champagne socialists.
However, isn't someone who fights for policies that are not in their own self-interest actually demonstrating
real integrity, rather than hypocrisy?
And what's wrong with a rich person "disliking the rich"?
I imagine we'll see
an awful lot of this sort of ad hominem attack directed at Hollande, who clearly rattles the DM, which, I imagine, is fearful of someone similar gaining power over here.
Here's the start...
