TAXES

I'm sick of hearing that rich people would leave the UK rather than pay more taxes. 

And they'd take their money and their business opportunities with them

and they'd invest in some other country with lower taxes

and less employment rights for workers

and less protections for nature and the environment.

What kind of a shithold do those rich bastards want to live in?

How patriotic is that?

If you were stinking rich,

surely you'd want to invest in the country

that made you who you are.

That nurtured you 

and educated you.

Surely you'd want to help your country

generate wealth

generate jobs

generate happiness.

That said, I don't think being a left-wing socialist is all about raising taxes.

HERE are some thoughts on what we can do to change the tax system today.
