Tesla have approved a $1 trillion pay package for Elon Musk. That's 20 billion times more than a nurse in the UK earns.
Don't let anyone tell you immigrants or disabled people are the problem. It's the richest 1% hoarding all the wealth.
Time to tax the super-rich properly.

So Labour can find the money to 'relax' their changes to the non-dom tax regime but they can't find the money to restore the winter fuel allowance or lift children out of poverty by scrapping the two-child benefit cap 🤔

Billionaire wealth has risen 3 times faster in 2024 than 2023 according to @oxfamgb.bsky.social with 60% coming from either inheritance, cronyism and corruption or monopoly power.
This gross level of wealth hoarding is unjust and unsustainable.
