We’re out and about across the UK today to tell MPs and constituents that our country is missing out on £460m a week without a wealth tax.
Rachel Reeves doesn’t need to make cuts, instead she can tax the richest people like us to build a better Britain.

The world is 700% richer than in 1970 but the average person is only 8% richer.
Because the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer.
We are all being robbed every second of every day, and it doesn't matter how much profit or growth there is.
It will never reach you.

In 2024, the UK’s billionaires increased their collective wealth by £35 million every day. Corporate profits are soaring. Instead of trying to balance the books on the backs of the poorest both in the UK and abroad by cutting welfare and aid, it's time this government started taxing wealth fairly.

Etymology of the day: ‘book’ comes from an ancient root shared by ‘beech’, a wood that people used for engraving inscriptions. ‘Paper’ comes from ‘papyrus’, and ‘volume’ is from the Latin for a ‘roll’ of parchment.

Trump, the self-styled 'master negotiator', has removed any leverage for Putin to come to the table. The only possible conclusions are either/some combination of a) he's actually a terrible negotiator b) he's indifferent to what happens to Ukraine c) he wants Russia to win.

Imagine you were the richest man in the world. You could have anything you wanted, go anywhere you wished, do whatever took you fancy. How would you spend your weekend? Depriving the poorest people in the world of food and healthcare and boasting about it?
