Capital gains taxes make no sense & shouldn't exist

I invest my capital. I create the opportunity. I take the risk. I do the work. I take the chances. I accept the losses if things go wrong

So why should the government collect a slice when things go right?

They didn’t take the risk. They didn’t build the business. They just take

Keir Starmer's legacy. Everything else is blah blah

[David Shaw @David90shaw]

🚨 EXPOSED: THE BRUTAL COST OF A BURNHAM PREMIERSHIP.

Keir Starmer is barely out of the door, and the Labour establishment is already preparing to raid your bank account.

Andy Burnham’s economic blueprint has leaked, and it is a complete disaster for the British middle class.

He is backing a scheme to scrap council tax and replace it with a new annual property tax of 0.48% of your home's value. 🤡

If you live in an average £553,000 house, you will be forced to pay £2,654 every single year just for the privilege of living in your own home.

But the Labour tax grab gets even worse. 💷

Burnham wants to hike the top rate of income tax to 50p.

His economic advisers are also pushing to scrap capital gains tax and tax your investments and dividends at full income tax rates.

He is even proposing a flat 10% care levy on all inheritance, dragging millions of ordinary families into a death tax on their loved ones' estates from pound one.

They are coming for everything you have built.
And look at how quickly they will lie to your face just to get your vote.

To win the Makerfield by-election last week, Burnham promised WASPI women he would "stick by" them and deliver billions in pension compensation.

The second the vote was over, his team immediately backflipped and admitted they have zero plans to pay it. 🤡

They ruled out cash payouts entirely, offering them taxpayer-funded bus passes instead.

They treat the public like absolute fools while using your hard-earned wages to fund their political ambitions.

The global financial markets are already panicking.

The yield on 10-year gilts spiked the second Starmer resigned because Burnham openly declared he wants to stop being in hock to the bond markets, which is code for massive, reckless state borrowing.

This will drive UK mortgage rates and business loans through the roof, leaving everyday families to pay the price.

Labour has simply changed the face in Downing Street, but the plan to bleed the working class dry remains exactly the same.

RT to warn the country and expose this massive Labour tax grab! 🔁🇬🇧🔥

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Andy Burnham is either principled and will follow his own advice from 2022, or is a cynical careerist politician who has no principles whatsoever.

Can you guess which he is?

CALL A GENERAL ELECTION NOW

[Mike McMullen 🇮🇪 🇨🇦 @truthtrain101]

Here are headlines from the UK, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia.

Simultaneously, they all want a social media ban. "To protect the children".

Our governments aren't calling the shots; they're following orders.

This is just one example. Every law passed happens in the exact same way in all for 4 countries. This cannot be possible unless each leader of each country works for the exact same people.

Our leaders are not elected; they are installed.

🚨 A Reform UK government will increase the VAT threshold from £90,000 to £150,000.

We will back entrepreneurs to build businesses and get on in life.

[Queen Bee @KingBobIIV]

He's not bothered about child sexual exploitation on Pornhub, OnlyFans, Roblox, or any of the countless platforms where children are groomed, abused, and exploited. He's not demanding tougher sentences for predators. He's not demanding the closure of sites that profit from sexual content children can access. He wasn't particularly interested when the BBC spent decades covering for prolific celebrity nonces or when LBC parade around government psyop whore Bonnie Blue.

What he cares about is @X.

Because X is where people get news, compare notes, share evidence, and discover that what is happening in one town is happening in another. From Penzance to Portugal - we are one.

The pretence is that this is about "misinformation" and "encitement", but the actual target is the means by which ordinary people communicate with each other.

They've tried destroying our pubs and our churches and communities - where we congregate and talk and unite. But we found somewhere else, so that has to be destroyed too.

What they forget is that the British were organising long before mobile phones, the internet, social media, television, radio, or newspapers.

For a thousand years we organised rebellions, uprisings, protests, petitions, and resistance movements armed with little more than word of mouth, churchyards, market squares, pubs, and messengers on horseback.

The Iceni managed it.

The Cornish managed it.

The Levellers managed it.

The Chartists managed it.

The people who fought the Romans, the Vikings, the Normans, and every other power that tried to impose itself upon them managed it.

If people are angry enough, they will find each other.

They always have.

The UK VAT threshold is a literal wall for small businesses

Turn over £89,999? Great. Cross over to £90,000 & you’ll instantly owe 20% VAT on your sales

To make the same profit, a small business suddenly has to hike prices drastically or swallow a massive loss

Thousands of sole traders actively stop taking on work at the end of the financial year just to stay under the limit

The system actively caps growth

[Stuey Beef 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @stuey_beef]

Ask yourself: what kind of force drafts an official statement three days after a teenager’s death that effectively paints him as the aggressor — and only rows back when the family’s fury makes it politically impossible?

What kind of chief constable signs off a culture where the priority, in the immediate aftermath of a fatal stabbing, is not “how did we fail him?” but “how do we protect ourselves?”

The IOPC has already confirmed it is investigating the officers’ contact with Henry, including the use of handcuffs and first aid, yet Hampshire briefed The Telegraph that there is “no indication of misconduct” and that all officers are merely “witnesses”.

This looks less like accountability and more like an early attempt to lock in a “nothing to see here” narrative before the watchdog has even finished.

When a chief constable presides over a force that handcuffs a dying boy, drafts victim‑blaming lines, meddles in a live trial, and then rushes out exonerating briefings for his own officers, the problem is not rogue PCs — it’s the man at the top.

🚨STARMER’S BLATANT HYPOCRISY EXPOSED! 🤔

Perfect example of Two-Tier Keir.

Video 1 (2020): Starmer viciously attacks Trump for his response to the rioters after George Floyd’s death, calling it an “affront to humanity” and defending the unrest as “peaceful protests” by people “rightly demanding justice”.

“Like you, I was shocked and angered by the killing of George Floyd. And the response of President Trump and US authorities to the peaceful protests, to people rightly demanding justice, has been an affront to humanity.”

Video 2 (Today): Starmer condemns the “disgraceful” rioters in the wake of Henry Nowak’s tragic murder and his shocking treatment by police.

“No matter the pain we feel, there is no justification for violence and disorder. Let me be clear, we will ensure anyone found engaging in disorder meets the full force of the law.”

Why the blatant double standard, Keir?

Either rioting is bad or it isn’t?

You’re “shocked and angered” and label Trump’s crackdown an “affront to humanity”… but now you’re cracking down hard when people “demand justice” after Henry Nowak.

Are you the “affront to humanity” for condemning these rioters?

Two-Tier Keir exposed for the world to see.

SHE REPORTED CHILD ABUSE 181 TIMES. BRITAIN SAID NOT NOW, THANKS.

Sara Rowbotham was an NHS sexual health coordinator in Rochdale. Between 2005 and 2011 she filed 181 detailed referrals to Greater Manchester Police and social services.

Each one named victims. Each one described systematic rape and trafficking of girls as young as 11. Each one went nowhere.

She was not ignored because the evidence was weak. She was ignored because the evidence was inconvenient.

Authorities labelled her not credible. Her team was dismissed. The official reason given for inaction was community cohesion.

Read that again.

Community cohesion. While children were being passed between men like property, the priority was keeping things quiet.

She was made redundant in 2014.

A 2024 independent review confirmed every referral she filed was credible, substantive and appropriately communicated. The same review identified 96 men still considered an active risk to children. Still out there. In 2024. Because the original response scraped only the surface and called it a job done.

Five police officers refused to cooperate with the review. They were not charged. They were not recalled. They retired on pensions.

Sara Rowbotham got an MBE.

The system that failed 181 times got a press release about lessons learned.

If this does not alarm you, you have not understood it yet.

🚨The BBC had just sunk to a new low.

On Newsnight last night, presenter Matt Chorley claimed Nigel Farage said people should respond to the murder of Henry Nowak with “white cold rage”.

Nigel DID NOT SAY THIS.

The insertion of the word “white” by the BBC is obviously designed to change the meaning completely.

It was no slip of the tongue, Chorley said it THREE TIMES.

He came prepared to defame Nigel and lie to the country.

This is disgusting from the BBC.

Why do they insist on spitting in the faces of the millions of Reform supporters who are forced to contribute to their salaries?

THE BBC MUST APOLOGISE IMMEDIATELY

We are now in a weird era where a guy gets publicly shamed for running his sprinklers on a Tuesday, while a data center the size of a Costco quietly drains a reservoir so AI can generate a picture of your cat as a medieval knight. And the data center gets a tax incentive for it.

One of the hardest pills to swallow is being in your 40s and realizing the decades you spent climbing the corporate ladder were a waste.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

The fact that the two men who brutalised a police officer at Manchester Airport will NOT face a retrial is a shocking disgrace.

It is a huge miscarriage of justice and they only ever seem to go in one direction.

The British justice system is BROKEN.

Time for changes.
