		<description><![CDATA[The Telegraph&#8217;s main headline yesterday declared the outbreak of ‘class war’ in a post-budget attention-grabber which made me slightly anxious&#8230;.
A class war, claims the Telegraph, has been ignited by the new 50% tax rate for those with annual earnings of £150,000 or more. What&#8217;s more, in the paper’s view, this signifies a declaration of “war [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Every now and then you meet someone who is so inspiring, they take your breath away. Yesterday I &#8216;met&#8217; Raden Ajeng Kartini, a Javanese aristocrat who lived for just twenty five years and in that time inspired a revolution in ideals for the women of the Indonesian archipelago.
