Billionaires contribute between 0.5% and 3% of the UK government income

Meanwhile public sector workers contribute about 8-11%

Small business about 15%

Why is everyone rushing to protect the billionaires?

The war in Ukraine is getting bigger and bigger, and countries like the UK that initially supported it are still not accepting responsibility for its consequences. It is ordinary people who are paying the price, not politicians.

Scotland is only tolerated by Westminster as long as our wealth can be extracted for their benefit. Otherwise they are quite happy to toss our firms and workers on the scrap heap.
Time for Scottish Independence.

Los niños son de los más afectados por el genocidio: han perdido el acceso a educación y salud, y muchos se ven obligados a realizar tareas agotadoras como acarrear agua largas distancias o buscar comida.
El mundo tiene una deuda: devolver la infancia a los niños palestinos.

Donald Trump is astonished that Norway is vastly wealthy, the richest Government in the world, because of the North Sea oil and gas, but the UK with the same North Sea is poor

I'll cure his astonishment it is because it has been completely privatised in the UK, and not in Norway

Another attack on the working class! Finance Minister Rachel Reeves' proposed 'hidden tax' is a direct hit on hard-working families who are already struggling with the cost of living.

This is not economic policy - it's economic punishment. #FairTax #WorkingClassMatters
