We’ve got 3 more months of empty, unhelpful speculation
I like how being like, really cautious and delicate concerning taxing the ultra wealthy is being messaged to the general public, as if we’d get really upset if someone were to tax the ultra wealthy, who the fuck is on the other side of this issue?
I guess since the majority of legacy media is in the pocket of those very same ultra rich, or satraps that answer to the very rich, that makes sense. Let’s no upset GB News and the Daily Mail
So many messes to fix, all that money and all the uncertainty just being held, really if a rich person doesn’t want to help the country, they should just leave, at least that way they can find somewhere they do like.
If their not going to cut benefits and in fact increase them as rumours say then yep we all about to be hit with tax rises. I have no problem with someone receiving less than a grand a month just to live. I take issue with those on benefits receiving thousands while I get taxed hundreds on my paycheck every month
It will be so unfair to them, especially if they are “earning” their wealth by unfair means like paying workers pittance, offshore shells to funnel profits, monopoly or collusion in prices.
If I earn money unfairly, i should not be taxed on it unfairly, i reserve the right to be taxed like everyone else, or better give me tax breaks for creating jobs (not enough, even if my employees are overworked in an dead end job”)
Finally taxing the people with the money not the ones without it. 50% of all wealth in the UK is in 50 families for a start, It’s time we started to collect tax from the daily mail and other newspapers and corporations if you make money from UK people. Like the daily mail you pay tax like British people do. If you have managed to scam the UK by finding a way not to pay any tax then it’s time to make them pay and not our old sick and poor.
Enough of the loopholes just close them and make it fair on everyone
“Refuse to rule out”?
Should be your first thought, gobshites
Labour will do anything but make cuts and anything to keep spending funded.
I want to see them apply a walth tax and see if they can uniquely make it work while every other country – even the most socialist ones have failed to do so. In all their cases they either pulled in relatively nothing or lost a huge amount with people leaving.
It’s not as simple as saying you have a house worth £10m. What if 90% of that is mortgaged? So then this £10m asset only has £1m of equity? All you have to do is remortgage some of your assets and now you can escape the tax.
The rich are not going to sit on their hands waiting for Reeves to decide. They will take steps to ‘divest’/hide or transfer their assets and themselves regardless.
The next four years are going to be a fun ride. If it all does go to shit, then we can put to bed ideas like ‘wealth tax’ for a generation.
lets get on with it already https://patrioticmillionaires.uk/
They won’t. Because they ARE Britain’s richest people
People gonna face cold reality if Reeves does the “tax the rich” BS which falls flat on its face a wealthy just go away.
Look at the Nom Dom fiasco.
Truth is the rich pay for nearly all tax revenue. Tax more and they say bye Felicia
Tax and spend, absolutely no clue. The OBR is stuffed full of failed ideas and short term thinking.
Labour’s entire manifesto was a tissue of fibs, wasn’t it?
Guys I have a crazy idea! What if, instead of squeezing people more and more until they collapse, we reduce spending? I know it’s a novel concept to a labour government, but perhaps they should consider it
As long as it’s people with 10s of millions, not just folk who happened to get lucky with house price rises or have worked hard to build up pensions and investments for their future.
