For the record, I was an advisor to Ed Miliband's Labour Party on tax policy, I strongly support a wealth tax, and I am aware of a viable and fully costed proposal to implement one in the UK.
Amazing interview attacking Polanski as a "fantasist" "selling unicorns".
But Polanski has not said "squeezing a tiny elite of billionaires will pay for everything that we want and everything that we need.” He has simply argued, as many tax economists do, for a wealth tax.
So who is the fantasist?

By then, we predict that more than one-in-three British children (34 per cent) would be growing up in poverty.
