Guardian writer Ash Sarkar has faced a backlash on social media after tweeting about the missing Titanic tourist submarine victims. Her tweet suggested that the rich should be taxed more if they can afford to spend £250,000 on submarine experiences while others suffer inequality. Five people are currently missing on the vanished vessel, Titan, with its oxygen tank having run out just after midday on 27 November. In response to criticism, Sarkar tweeted that the events highlighted “grotesque inequality”. She also suggested that the missing were in part to blame due to the arrogance of their endeavour.
