BREAKING: We're outside Parliament with cross-party MPs ahead of #Budget2026 to ask - Rachel Reeves, why won't you tax their wealth?
If this govt refuses to tax the super-rich tomorrow they are making a huge mistake.

Plaid defeat Reform and push Labour to third place in Caerphilly. Best evidence yet that to beat Reform, you have to stop trying to be them (FAO Labour, Tories).
The fightback starts now - excited to push on to the May elections next year.

Incredible research comprehensively busting the myth that is shaping much of Starmer's approach to government right now:
Labour voters are not switching to Reform, in fact they are headed to parties to Labour's left or simply don't know who to back. Labour's current strategy is doomed to fail.

Starmer is concentrating on Reform but Labour shouldn't mistake their threat on the right, even in Leave voting heartlands.

A victory for the right to protest and utter embarrassment for the police who spent £3 million on this operation while far-right riots raged.
I hope this makes the authorities think twice before pursuing draconian pre-emptive crackdowns.

We need to tax wealth not work.
Why? Because usually no matter how hard you work, the compound interest on huge wealth grows much faster than your wages + the rich use this passive income to buy all the assets.

Actively resent the fact we’re expected to listen to a press conference on “mass deportations” as if this is a perfectly normal, mainstream thing and not the unhinged rantings of a racist who is somehow on my television.

Adil Ray: "On asylum seekers in hotels, we're talking about 32,000 people. We're a population of 60+ million.. do you think there's a bit of a disproportionate response here?"

Henley and Partners' bogus data was used to fuel an avalanche of false media reports that govt tax changes led to a 'millionaire exodus'.
Today, we showed up at their HQ (alongside special guest Mr Monopoly) to correct the record.
It's time for the richest to PAY UP.

The simple and obvious solution to so much of this is to allow asylum seekers to work and to rent private accommodation but the Labour party's racism problem prevents them from doing simple and obvious things that would benefit both migrants and the economy
So, they are going to share the locations of where highly vulnerable individuals live with firms which have suffered massive data breaches? Hmm, what could possibly go wrong.
