We also tax ordinary people more heavily compared to rich and extremely rich people as a proportion of their earnings.
It it imperative to correct this imbalance at the next opportunity.

Labour is heading for an electoral whipeout as it is so inept.

Starmer is too staid, too methodical, and doesn't seem imaginative enough to affect the changes this country so desperately needs. The same goes for Reeves, who is far to establishment focussed.
