The UK needs a radically different policy platform as an alternative to the current trajectory. We're bringing together policy experts, politicians & campaigners to discuss what that looks like. We're adding new speakers all the time - tickets here: autonomy.work/forum-2029/

Great conversation with Zack Polanski London Green Party conference today - wonderful energy in the room, I reminded them that millions are desperate to vote for a UK that taxes the rich rather than punishes the poor, that brings water back into public ownership, that stands up

‘Starmer has played a poor hand badly’ Brilliant episode on the US ‘trade deal’. Empathise with Faiza Shaheen American friend: ‘oh you’re the fools who cowered to our government first’ patreon.com/login?ru=%2Fpo…

If you’re this angry about £2.80 fare dodgers - you’re gonna be real furious about the billionaire tax avoiders! …aren’t…aren’t you?!

One year exactly since all that drama and heartache with the Labour Party, so pleased to have got this job! Such an important issue at such a crucial time… a wealth tax on the very richest is a very popular policy among the public, including Reform voters… so why isn’t it

Brilliant response to usual scaremongering about rich leaving! In any case, why should the rich be rewarded for bad behaviour? If the rest of us didn’t pay our taxes properly we’d rightfully get in trouble

Hello Rachel Reeves, we wanted to make sure you see some important % and ££s:   🇬🇧 80% of UK millionaires support a 2% tax on wealth over £10m 🇬🇧 81% think it’s patriotic to pay their fair share We’re proud to pay and here to stay #taxthesuperrich #taxwealthnotwork

Public services that we all rely on are struggling. Cuts to our social security are targeting the disabled. All whilst inequality grows. It doesn't have to be this way. Tax wealth, not work. Tax the super rich. Our incoming Executive Director Faiza Shaheen on #PoliticsLive:

Tax the rich to put money directly into the pockets of the poor… sounds left wing but it is what Farage and Reform are proposing (with smoke and mirrors of course) It’s depressing that it is the far right pushing this, on the other it’s a reminder that there is huge public

Omg some actual good news!!! Yay!!! So inspiring what Mamdani and NYC have achieved! In the UK, the Labour Party would have blocked him from running 👀

A 2% wealth tax could raise up to £24 billion every year. Ask your MP to tax the super rich more: taxjustice.eaction.org.uk/tax-the-super-…

I’m SICK of saying it, but I’ll say it again. Asylum seekers can’t claim benefits. You need an NI number to do that. Asylum seekers aren’t staying in 5* hotels. Asylum seekers get £49.18p a week to live on. Could YOU live on that? NOPE. So stop pretending they’re living it large.

Every time our politicians fail to acknowledge and act on the opinion of the vast majority of the population, they chip away at people’s faith in democracy
