The Green Party of England & Wales @greenparty.org.uk · Aug 1

Former Shadow Chancellor Anneliese Dodds has even said Starmer and Reeves should consider a wealth tax.

They can only bury their heads in the sand for so long.

Now is the time to tax the super-rich properly and close the inequality gap.

The Green Party of England & Wales @greenparty.org.uk · Jul 29

A group of leading economists is urging Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves to introduce a wealth tax to tackle extreme inequality.

The Green Party has consistently called for a fairer tax system.

Time for Labour to make some different political choices and tax the super-rich fairly.

Frustrated as both councillor & resident—flies and foul smells in Heathcote need urgent action. EA must be properly funded to investigate. They’ve failed to provide enough monitors or pinpoint the cause. Request a monitor: 0800 80 70 60. #Heathcote #Warwick #flies #warwickgates
