Utter billionaire-funded nonsense. The notion that Piketty has ‘infected’ our political class for two decades is a complete untruth. If it were true, we’d already have a wealth tax. Expect a hatchet job on @garyseconomics in the coming months. #taxwealthnotwork
This government’s unwillingness to tax billionaire wealth is an existential threat to all our children’s future. Every societal problem leads back to this. We have to respond to Covid/Brexit in the same way we responded to the aftermath of WWII #taxwealthnotwork@10DowningStreet
@RachelReevesMP@garyseconomics taxing 5-figure salaries above £45k is political suicide. Stop raising taxes that tackle the symptoms, raise taxes that tackle the causes. Trickle-up economics must end. Why should I pay more when the billionaires do not?! #taxwealthnotwork
If @RachelReevesMP and the @UKLabour increase my income tax by even 1% and leave the billionaires untouched they will become the most despised party in UK political history. It’ll be bigger than the Poll Tax and will usher in a Reform government. #taxwealthnotwork
