Your "bro in law" isn't the Prime Minister of the UK telling everyone to tighten their belts. What difference does it make? One is a job. The other is done for his free time. I very much doubt he is telling those of means to brace themselves for challenging days ahead. Again, culture wars. To you, nothing. Culture wars? Really?

You lot really don't get it do you? A lot of people, mostly but not exclusively, right wing people don’t understand the concept of class war. Sadly a lot of people buy into the constructed divisions along the lines of: refugees, differences between men and women, denying LGBT+ etc that the Tories and bosses use to divide and rule. I have some sympathy as we are all drowning in this nonsense and lies from the second we are born. Mostly through the mainstream rags only fit to be used as loo roll (Sun, Mail etc), but also the ideological conditioning of school, TV and so called ‘common sense’. This reality doesn’t absolve anyone of blame for their reactionary views though. We should all be open to changing our views with time as we get older and (hopefully) wiser.

It is an advert for why we need a wealth tax to create a fairer society. He already pays about 45% of his salary in taxes, right? What number do you think is fair? 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 99%? I doubt Oggy was talking about Income Tax on his Salary which is a fraction of his earnings Even at that the current 45% is the marginal rate on the higher portion of his earnings His effective rate would be about 35% The vast majority of Rishi's income would be from Capital Gains on his Investments which has a headline Tax Rate of 18% but with allowances I doubt his effective Tax Rate on most of his Earned Income would be much above 10%

Go through the Lineker thread. You will find a mini-carnival of reaction culminating in a post linking to a peter hitchens article trying to whitewash the Nazis as being left-wing/progressive. It was breathtakingly dumb and one of the worst posts I have read on the Oatcake.

No I am talking about a tax on capital wealth. Tax people worth over a set amount a percentage of their wealth. It works in other jurisdictions so why not here? Obviously it would be fairer to tax (NI included) all income the same. I don’t see why dividends or property income or income of savings which is all unearned and passive (so usually recipients are wealthier than average) should be taxed less than earned income.
