The new CEO of Melrose and his predecessor earned almost £59m last year, according to new analysis from @highpaycentre.bsky.social. The average UK nurse would take 1,636 years to earn the same amount. While most of us are struggling to pay our bills, FTSE 100 fat cats are raking it in.

Dave Fishwick from ‘Bank of Dave’ slams the big banks for excessive profits and bonuses while ripping off their customers 👏👏👏

A windfall tax on the big 4 banks - as proposed by @positivemoneyuk.bsky.social - could raise £5 billion so far this year. That’s enough to scrap the two-child benefit cap. In just the first 6 months of 2025, HSBC, Barclays, NatWest and Lloyds have made £16.5 billion in UK income! 🤯

Brilliant video from @sharethewealthuk.bsky.social on our windfall tax proposal 👇

In just the first 6 months of 2025 the big 4 banks have made £16.5 billion in UK income. A windfall tax like the one on oil and gas companies - as proposed by @positivemoneyuk.bsky.social - could raise £5 billion so far this year from those banks, enough to scrap the two-child benefit cap.

The big 4 banks have made £24.1bn in profits in just the first 6 months of 2025. Imposing a similar windfall tax to oil and gas companies on their UK income would have already raised enough to scrap the two-child benefit cap, lifting more than 250,000 children out of poverty overnight.

A 2% wealth tax on assets over £10m could raise £8.6bn from the top 40 billionaires on the Sunday Times Rich List alone. That could cover the cost of keeping PIP disability benefits AND scrapping the two-child benefit cap. So why make cuts when you can tax the richest?

Kevin Bridges slams cuts to disability benefits and calls out corporate tax avoiders #disabilitybenefits #TakingThePIP

A tiny 2% annual wealth tax on assets over £10 million could raise over £5bn from the 15 richest billionaires on the Sunday Times Rich List alone. That’s enough to reverse all of the government’s planned cuts to disability benefits. #DisabilityBenefits #TakingThePIP

A tiny 2% tax on assets over £10 million could raise £4.1 billion from the top 10 richest billionaires in the UK alone. That £4.1 billion could reverse cuts to PIP disability benefits. Why cut benefits for disabled people when you could tax billionaires instead? #TakingThePIP

“A wealth tax that could lift so many out of hardship should be on the table” – Mirror editorial referencing our research

A tiny 2% wealth tax could raise £1.75bn from the top 3 billionaires on the Sunday Times Rich List alone. That’s more than enough to fully reverse winter fuel payment cuts.

Cuts to Disability benefits are a political choice, not an unavoidable necessity. The Government is choosing to make Disabled people and their carers pay the price to meet self-imposed fiscal rules, instead of asking those with the broadest shoulders. The Government could do things differently.👇

A brilliant response from @stephenstroud.bsky.social of @patmillsuk.bsky.social to those who say we can't tax the super-rich because they'll go abroad

The @theguardian.com view on billionaire Britain: tax wealth fairly or face democratic unravelling

A tiny 2% annual wealth tax could raise £1.75bn from the 3 richest billionaires on the Sunday Times Rich List - enough to fully reverse winter fuel payment cuts. The same tax on the top 20 richest billionaires could raise enough to cancel cuts to PIP disability benefits too 🤯

A 2% annual wealth tax on assets over £10m could raise more than £9bn from the top 50 billionaires on the Sunday Times Rich List alone. That’s enough to reverse cuts to winter fuel payments and PIP, and scrap the two-child benefit cap - improving life for millions.

A neat breakdown of the cash that could be raised if a wealth tax was applied to some of the people listed on the Sunday Times Rich List. Nice work by the new campaign group @sharethewealthuk.bsky.social sharethewealth.org.uk
