Big hard agree!! I am BAFFLED by the state of affairs. This guy mentions 'immediate' returns....but these are necessarily CORRECT returns, with weight and consideration - you'll have to spend time fact checking, and delving into the non existant references.... What's the point?!!??

UK wealth tax is inevitable says billionaires nemesis

UK wealth tax is inevitable says billionaires nemesis

The 50 wealthiest families in the UK own more than 34 million people combined.

That level of inequality is totally unsustainable.

A wealth tax isn’t radical - it’s inevitable. And the Green Party will keep making the case.

I completely disagree. I just don't think that would go down well with *anyone*, but ESPECIALLY locals.

He's already a member of the London Assembley - he's contributing to decisions there - he's London based. There are already several Green MPs in the country. It would be totally unnecessary.
