Labour says 'squeezed middle' earns up to £50,000

	Quote: Labour today moved to define its principal target group, the "squeezed middle", by that saying such voters are people on an income of between £16,000 and £40,000-£50,000. The definition was given by Liam Byrne, charged with overseeing the party's policy process by Ed Miliband.

Well considering that an income of £50 000 would put include some of the top 5% of earners does seem strange. I would have thought that £35 000 would have been the upper limit.
