Again - all we're asking of the super rich is that they simply get richer at a slower rate. If they scream and cry and threaten to leave over that, then I'm afraid much harsher action is justified to redistribute wealth.
@zackpolanski.bsky.social wants to introduce a wealth tax of 1% on assets of over £10m & 2% on assets over £1bn & if the super rich want to leave the UK because they are being taxed a tiny amount more then we should wave them goodbye
Thatcherite John Redwood says 1% isn't a tiny amount.

📚Our Literacy Leaders have been busy this week! They led Read Write Count sessions with our P2 and P3 children. Thank you to everyone who was able to us. 📚

We really enjoyed exploring our Read, Write, Count bags before taking them home. Thank you Scottish Book Trust. 📚😊

Actually funding libraries would be a good start.
Ahead of the National Year of Reading, the Education Committee has launched a new inquiry to understand how reading can be nurtured following the decline in the number of children reading for pleasure 👇 #BookSky

As winter descends on the UK it might help to know that there's still floral colour to be found throughout the winter. There are a small group of plants that lift my spirits between now & February-here are a few of them (& my illustrations alongside):

Fund the asylum system by randomly choosing a billionaire per year to have their assets taken down to a reasonable sum (say £50m - who needs more than 50 million pounds in a lifetime?) and the rest used to help refugees have nice stable lives in the UK.
I don't see how anyone could imagine that refugees as a group are carrying significant wealth with them in the form of stealable possessions by the time they get to Ireland or the UK.
