I can't find anywhere that says train guards earn upwards of 55k, do you have a source?

The CEO of bet365 took home over 300 million last year. A train driver who derailed the thing every time he took his seat would still be doing less damage to society.

However, I still think 90k is a high wage in the context of wider society and that is why I supported labour's policy to tax those on 80k+ a little bit more. People kept telling me that a) 80k doesn't go far in london and b) it was the politics of envy. Do you agree with taxing those on 80k+ a bit more? Or is it just train drivers you have a thing about?
