Tax INCOME from wealth. Taxing assets is too difficult.

Wealth taxes sound like a good idea, except, increasing taxes on income from wealth makes more sense

Disgusting.

PFI gives money to the private sector and cripples the NHS with debt.

We've seen it all before, these people are incompetent
"Part of this will be capital funding we've allocated into the primary care estate.. & some of it, we're working with the private sector as part of a private sector partnership to fund the rest of them"

UK govt can save over £20bn a year by ending payment of interest on commercial banks’ central bank reserves.

Subsidy implemented after the 2007-08 crash. Banks are very profitable.

Since 2023, the EU stopped paying interest on central bank reserves.

UK can find better uses of £20bn+.

The pathetic dross the MSM comes up with is frankly kindergarten level.

Its shameful.

Lets all worry about the billionaires shall we?

Fuck right off.

Successive UK govts have failed to achieve sustainable economic growth because of:

Impoverishing the masses
Regressive taxation
Poor infrastructure
Unchecked profiteering
Low investment in productive assets
Neutering public investment

When will govts change course?

The genocide is still ongoing.

Children are still being starved if not to death then to the brink of death and permanent disability.

Doctors are still kept out.

Journalists are still kept out.

Bombs are still dropping.

Children are still dying

Please keep talking about the genocide.

Nothing makes me more interested in something than being told it’s no longer relevant/I should move on.

See also: Brexit, Farage’s home ownership, Farage’s income streams, Reform’s funding and racism, their links to Russia, MAGA and the mountain of evidence that they’re traitorous lying bastards.

Britain’s oil, gas and finance curses www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/11... Why is the UK failing? It's not because we are no good: it's because the government squandered oil and then bowed down to finance. We never had a hope once our governments put them first.
Britain’s oil, gas and finance curses

One of the most despicable Human beings ever to populate our political landscape.

A clear and present example of one rule for them, another for us.

This excuse of a Human should be rotting in jail.

Absolute pond life.
23,000 people died because Boris Johnson was too busy walking a dog, riding a motorbike and hosting guests as he took four days off at Chevening, instead of addressing warning signs of the pandemic

Why isn't Boris Johnson in jail?

The Mayor of London has told me in public just now he supports scrapping the two child benefit cap - when the Chancellor can afford to do so.

I asked him if he'd support a wealth tax on assets - and he refused to answer the question.
