40% rate does exist: http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/rates/it.htm
I'm sure that Wayne Rooney & his ilk have good accountants that make sure they don't pay top rate income tax, just as Jimmy Carr does.
Yup and for 2013/14 40% is now down to 32k, which is a 2k drop from this year to offset the £1300 raise in allowance (luv the maths ). If it carries on at that rate a lot more will be higher rate payers that maybe wouldn't expect to be.
