By midday today the average FTSE 100 CEO has already made more money than the average worker in the UK earns all year, according to analysis from @highpaycentre.bsky.social.

When so many of us are struggling to pay the bills, is it right that fat cat CEOs are raking it in? #FatCatTuesday

The NHS will pay £3 billion more a year for life-saving medicines from giant American pharmaceutical companies, because of a new UK-US trade deal.

When big US drug companies are already making billions in profit, is it right that the NHS should pay them more money? #NHS

Why didn't Rachel Reeves raise wealth taxes in #Budget2025?

Taxing extreme wealth, like a 2% annual tax on assets over £10 million, could have raised £24 billion a year.

Taxing capital gains at the same rate as income from work could have raised £11.5 billion a year.

Almost a third of your water bill pays for dividends for shareholders, and for private water companies to pay off their debt, according to research by @cmmonwealth.bsky.social

Will Rachel Reeves end the rip-off and bring down water bills in this Budget? #Budget

A senior nurse on a £40,000 salary pays more tax than someone who makes the same from selling shares.

Why is income from share taxed less than income from work?

Rachel Reeves is ditching plans to introduce an exit tax on wealthy people who leave the UK, according to reports today.

But when every other G7 country, apart from Italy, has an exit tax, why doesn’t the UK? #TaxTheSuperRich

Big 4 bank profits have soared to more than £35bn so far this year. Why won’t Rachel Reeves raise taxes on the banks?

The big 4 banks have made £35.1bn in profits so far this year. Imposing a similar windfall tax to oil and gas companies on their UK income would raise billions to invest in the NHS.

NEW: HSBC have made £17.3 billion in profit so far this year, according to latest figures released today.

But their CEO has warned the government not to introduce a new windfall tax on the banks.

When HSBC are making such big profits, why can't they pay a windfall tax?

NEW: NatWest have made £5.8 billion in profit so far this year, according to latest figures released today.

But their CEO has warned the government not to introduce a new windfall tax on the banks.

When they're making such big profits, why can't NatWest pay a windfall tax?

Barclays have made £7.3bn in profit so far this year, according to figures released today. Their CEO thinks higher taxation on banks is 'facile and fallacious logic'. But a windfall tax on the Big 4 UK banks, proposed by @positivemoneyuk.bsky.social, could raise billions to invest in public services

Energy bills are up 2% from today, after a rise in the energy price cap.

Meanwhile CEOs like Chris O’Shea of British Gas continue to earn huge sums, and energy companies continue to give big payouts to shareholders.

Is that right when most of us are struggling to pay our bills?

Chancellor Rachel Reeves told Bloomberg TV this morning “I don’t think we need a standalone wealth tax”.

When 75% of the public support a wealth tax why won’t Rachel Reeves back taxing extreme wealth? #LabourConference2025
