I am reminded once again of this, as I see more news about the UK government talking about cutting disability benefits. If you taxed the Sunday Times rich list 1%, you wouldn't have to make these cuts. If you taxed them 10% of their billions, there wouldn't even be any deficit.

IF THEY WERE TAXED AT THE 45% ON THE HIGHER BRACKET LIKE THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BE, THEY WOULD GENERATE £357.75 BILLION FOR THE ECONOMY.

But I suppose cutting a couple of hundred quid from the poorest is probably the most sensible solution. Don't want them getting any ideas above their station. In the year 2025. 👍
