Maybe start being a bit more creative in your thinking. The 1% as you call them just move to tax havens, and then tax revenue falls. If it was as easy as you suggest, it would have been done years ago. You are just beating the same old drum, it doesn’t work. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

I'm sure Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos thank you for defending them. Meanwhile Twitter staff were sleeping at their desks and Amazon staff were/are pissing into bottles so they don't get sanctioned. |  |

Profit and wealth created in this country should be taxed in this country. Maybe a tad cynical but I’m pretty sure that it is quite an easy thing to do but those wealthy individuals donate a lot to politicians and so it won’t be done with much enthusiasm. |  | |  |

Rats fleeing a sinking ship springs to mind https://fortune.com/europe/2024/06/06/uks-super-rich-panic-mode-fleeing-the-coun I'm not one for the politics of envy and attack the mega-rich for the sake of it, but it would be nice if they had to play by the same rules as everyone else. Once you get your income through investments, your personal tax rate drops like a stone. I think you can take out up to 5% of your fund value each year tax free. Something like that anyway. So someone with £1million invested can draw an income of £50k tax and NI free. And shelter it from inheritance tax liability through trusts. It doesn't seem fair. An employee earning £50k per year has to give up £12,500 of that in taxes. |  |

have you seen the nonsense story that guido is trying to push - without wanting to risk actually publishing it? do you think the tories or their press friends will be desperate enough to run it? |  |

Feck um! If they won't share in the tax burden they can go live in France or some other 3rd world country. They just won't be welcome back to UK, not for Wimbledon, Ascot, Henley etc. Get behind yer country or feck off would be the catchy motto |  | |  |

they've been drip feeding it for about a week. this is the latest heavy handed hint. https://order-order.com/2024/06/12/starmer-and-the-cut-out-woman/ it started with a quote from the michael ashcroft biography of rayner which alleged that a senior labour figure was involved in a long term affair (not with rayner). guido keeps hinting. |  |
