Watching politics and Big Tech. Wired into the right circles. Most headlines are theatre. Most truths don’t get printed. Stay ahead of the curve. Block idiots!
“Let’s tax the rich!” says the left.
Sounds great, until the bill lands on your kitchen table.
Here’s what really happens when a country brings in a wealth tax:
The rich don’t sit around waiting to pay more. They move their money, move abroad or hire someone clever to make it all vanish.
Who can’t do that? Ordinary people. Pensioners. Homeowners. Small business owners. Working people.
When landlords pull out or pension pots shrink, renters and retirees feel it first. Then come the job losses, stalled wages and shrinking futures as investment dries up across the board.
France brought in a wealth tax. Within a few years, 42,000 millionaires left the country. The government lost more tax revenue than it gained. Sweden scrapped its wealth tax after it caused capital flight, reduced savings and stunted entrepreneurship. Even Norway is seeing an exodus with record numbers of wealthy citizens now leaving because of their wealth tax hikes.
Lower growth. Higher taxes somewhere else. Fewer chances for your kids to build a better life.
The headlines sound heroic, but the pain pours down fast.
It’s sold as ‘fairness.’ But who gets hurt most? The very people the left claim to protect.
And maybe that’s the point. More reliance on the state. More control.
So next time someone shouts, “Make the rich pay!” ask yourself - who’s left picking up the pieces when they don’t?
Labour promised 6,500 new teachers. Today we learned that there are 1,900 FEWER teachers. It turns out Keir Starmer’s approach to promises is the same as he does with his messages - auto delete.
Yes!!
I knew you’d be a creepy leftie with a stalker account!!
I normally say to you lot ‘I’ll wait for a comment from you creepy 2nd account’, as you fucking weirdos don’t know no means no!
No, I said claims, you just said a statement with 3 words. I’ve said something, you have nothing you pathetic little cunt!

@Davein_Daveout@EdwardJDavey I don’t listen to a word Davey says, I just flick through and see it’s always Trump he’s talking about like a desperate school crush.
He has nothing
@trollivertree@ZackPolanski Oh god 🤦♂️
Do you actually think it does even though it’s literally showing in real time that it’s not?!
Less tax receipts, more taxes on the poor, less jobs, higher cost of living!!!
You’re a fucking idiot and you’re done.
Educate yourself you thick twat
@SEANROBBO75@SkyNews Because, obviously, they are supposed to be one of the main new sources for the masses in the UK.
So unclear on why that’s so difficult. Not interested in hearing more from you
