The real tough choices our government has to make…

If you tax the rich they don't die. If you cut the heating allowance for pensioners some will die. Kier Starmer knows this and is still going ahead. Absolutely shocking.

Taxing the rich only hurts the poor in the long run. Plus, the government is part of the rich and will find a way to exempt themselves from the wealth tax they want to impose on others.

If you tax the rich they'll hire lobbyists and accountants and lawyers and effectively not pay as many taxes. Always have, always will. It's a fool's errand. Better solutions are needed.

See the problem with the people that have hundreds of billions, is that they have the resources to just up and leave and go to a country like Monaco, Luxembourg, Liechtenstein, Costa Rica, etc, where they don't have to worry about their wealth.

They will go after the easiest the pensioners.What Labour really want is every pensioner to be in same boat irrespective of how long you worked and how much you contributed to the welfare state. They want people to work until they drop and will raise the pension age again, cancel bus passes and start charging for prescriptions. They are socialists and unless it affect themselves they dont care. Going after the very wealthy is far to difficult.

I dont get his maths. 1% of £500 bn is £5 billion and we are £2.6 trillion in the hole with UK debt. Plus we over spending £100 bn per year and we only bring in £1 trillion in Revenue. 10% of that 1 trillion £100 billion goes to just servicing the debt that is more than we spend Defence 75 billion & Education 90+ billion. Tax rises & spending cuts coming. Starmer has inherited this mess from govt mismanagement from Thatcher's time so both Tories & Labour have got us into this mess. Every politician has kicked this can down the road as they wanted to stay in power. Thats why I dont trust any of them as Jesus & Allah could not fix this 😀

Hey like the concept but in order to get your videos pushed better, cut out the breaks in between sentences and show a bit more projection in your voice. It may not seem like much but it helps a ton!

France already tried that in 2015 with a socialist government in charge to rather disastrous results. The best and brightest fled, the tax didn't generate the revenue they thought it would and eventually scrapped it.

Simple choice. Listen to the people and not your corporate sponsors and billionaire friends.
