A good time was had by all.
The party for rich people who want more of our money.
"Despite the wealth in the room, little money was raised on the night and instead the organisers launched a campaign to persuade the Treasury to provide a 50% tax break for donations to the UN millennium development goals."

"... The only glitch came after word got out about the tax idea, and a group of protesters from the Tax Justice Network and War on Want gathered outside the hotel and shouted 'Make poverty history! Tax the rich!' as the guests arrived."
