The brother of Princess Diana, Earl Spencer, has gone on to do an interview ahead of his new memoir being released - and it's raised a few eyebrows.

He accused King Charles of insensitively telling Spencer, in the wake of Princess Diana's death in 1997, that 'we'll forget her soon enough'.

UK correspondent Gavin Grey unpacked the interview further - and discussed whether Spencer is set to release more claims ahead of the book's release.

Resident Economist at Opes Partners Ed McKnight says he's feeling 'chipper' about this news.

"I just feel like that because interest deductibility was not ever a new tax in that they've put up our tax rates - it was a change to how they calculated our profits as landlords."
