Since the start of the year, the big 4 banks have made £32bn from interest and bank fees in the UK - paid by you. A 38% tax on UK net income as proposed by @positivemoneyuk.bsky.social would have raised £11bn so far this year.

The big 4 banks have made £35.1bn in profits so far this year. Imposing a similar windfall tax to oil and gas companies on their UK income would raise billions to invest in the NHS.

HSBC boss Georges Elhedery already earns £10.5 million a year.
But HSBC are raising his pay to £15 million a year.
If HSBC can afford these excessive wages for their CEO, surely they can afford to pay a windfall tax?

Barclays CEO C.S. Venkatakrishnan was paid £10.5 million last year.
But in September he told The Financial Times that the government needs to curb public sector pay rises.
When so many of us are struggling to pay our bills, maybe Fat Cat CEOs should take a pay cut instead?
