Inequitable distribution of income/wealth fuels social unrest. Richest 1% have more wealth than 70% of the population combined. Bottom 50% of the population has less than 5% of wealth. Wages taxed at higher rates than capital gains. Change politics. leftfootforward.org/2024/08/how-th…

Renovating Parliament will cost up to £25bn. The Burj Khalifa the tallest building in the world cost £1.5bn to build. The corruption in the UK is insane, I bet they spend £0.5bn and steal £24.5bn.

United Learning's pensions proposals "sound reasonable - until you consider the history. In late 80s/ early 1990s, 1m+ people voluntarily left generous company pensions schemes for inferior defined contrib plans, with largely disastrous results." FT piece: ft.com/content/661abf…

Putting qs to a multi-academy trust, which has 7 schools (4 secondary, 3 primary), but also has a CEO, CFO and director of education, for 8,000 pupils. Scale this up for the country, and you would get around 1,000 directors of ed, for eg,+1,000 CEOs. Efficient use of resources?

The UK state pension, worst in the world. But still too high so must retire at 68, also the highest in the world. But that’s not enough so must defund social care and the NHS so you die sooner. You are worthless to them.

Labour can end austerity at a stroke – by taxing the rich and taxing them hard. Rich need to be taxed more: They subvert democracy through bribes/donations Cause most carbon emissions Benefitted the most from tax cuts, subsidies Cause inequalities theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
