Considering Pill's boss Andrew Bailey was excoriated for making the exact same point last year, Pill can't claim he had no idea he would be misinterpreted. Or perhaps he is just as stupid as his boss (an incompetent buffoon who failed at the FCA but failed upwards because he was the only Brexiteer the Tories could find for the job). This wouldn't be out of character for the upper reaches of the British establishment.
Authers' loyalty to his classmate is admirable, unlike the Cambridge alums who turned a blind eye to the Cambridge Five, but the incestuousness is a good part of why the UK is so badly misgoverned.
As for how ordinary people can take action beyond striking for higher wages, one example is how they are switching to hard discounters Aldi and Lidl for their groceries (food inflation is at 17%). Luxury retailers like Waitrose or midrange ones like Tesco and Sainsbury thought, incorrectly, they were above the fray and tried to preserve their margins. The customers they have lost to Aldi and Lidl will not be coming back, even after inflation subsides.
