Could partial alternatives such as LVT replacing stamp duty and council tax, lifetime receipts tax instead of IHT or a temporary solidarity levy on £10m+ fortunes meet some of the fairness goals without facing some of the same issues?

How can a group of ‘powerful’ men, who once played as children themselves, not see what I see?
Children just want to play.
They have no say in where they are born, no control over their circumstances, and no real understanding of what’s happening in the world.
They just want to play.
And then there are these men, running countries, who were once that young now giving orders to bomb nations, killing, maiming, terrorising, and traumatising children all while justifying their actions as being for the greater good.

Last night,Russia launched a very deliberate&demonstrative massive strike on Odesa: that's the ceasefire you get.
This is very usual for prison culture:to beat up& kill demonstratively.
I will repeat the facts once more:
Russia is a terrorist state.
Putin is a war criminal
This is shocking. Even by the standards of 2025.
