Yep. You can always rely on Labour to be swayed by vested interests. So many progressive bills n policies watered down if not outright abandoned. #Cowards

We already pay taxes. We can afford to abolish the 2 child cap. Let's aim high and make the wealthy pay their fair share of tax instead of aiming at children and condemn them to stay in poverty just because there are more than 2 of them in a household. #PoliticsIsChoices

So you have never had to claim in your life. Happy to pay my taxes for a safety net. Not even paying Scandinavian levels of tax.

'According to a Gallup poll 88 per cent of Danes are happy to pay their taxes. Danish people simply see taxes as a good investment.' #Children #Society #FairTax

Thankfully, there are some taxes on wealth. 💸

🏰 The new Mansion Tax is a step in the right direction, but its like a sticking plaster on a broken leg —only expected to raise around £400 million, for scale that’s about 48x less than our preferred wealth tax.
