@AlexBeeOfficial Amazing mate, well done 👏👏

[Daniel Priestley @DanielPriestley]

The UK is like a person who looks rich but doesn’t own anything. The house is rented, the car is leased, the fancy watch is a gift from grandma.

Most British companies aren’t British. If you don’t own the assets, you don’t get the profit and you don‘t have the wealth.

The UK Government wants you to believe that the top 10% of British earners and investors aren’t paying enough in taxes (despite covering 50%+ of the bills).

The truth is, the UK doesn’t own anything anymore. When “British companies” make a profit it goes back to their foreign shareholders.

The economy isn’t in trouble because of wealth inequality the economy is in trouble because of asset deficiency.

The last chance the UK has to fix this is the small group of dynamic entrepreneurs and investors who are UK based. If you lose them, you’ve lost the existing businesses and the ability to create new ones. If the government taxes rise more - the only thing left in the UK will be cheap labour for foreign companies to exploit.

The Prime Minister blaming Junior doctors for hospital waiting lists is one of the most despicable things he’s said

& for the record he’s offered them a crappy real terms pay cut

If like me you stand with the junior doctors who sacrificed so much to keep us safe RT this widely
