Sir Michael Caine has launched a withering rant at the Government over "wasted" taxes.
The actor, who stars in British urban crime thriller Harry Brown, believes the government has got it wrong on its tax policies.
Talking to Sky News, he fumed, "You're saying to poor people, 'Let's tax those rich gits' and I understand that. You slice up the cake, give everyone a chance, but don't destroy the people who are making the bloody cake!
"I really believe about taking care of people, I don't mind paying tax. It's how the government spends my tax that I detest, really detest, because I see the waste."
He added, "More money than all our income is spent on benefits. Now you tell me there is nothing wrong with that system"
