  • A powerful voice to motivate voters across political and generational barriers.

    Why the ultra wealthy contribute so little tax - how they use their power to keep the system unfair, and what we can do about it if we unite.

  • Questions

    Lots of questions Gary doesn’t address in his one-policy approach of tax the wealthy. Who are his targets? How many in the Uk? What rate of tax? Will the total tax take move the needle? Currently lots of wealth capital gets invested in people, businesses and buying stuff. Why is this worse for the country in creating new jobs and wealth compared to giving it to the government to increase the welfare bill?

  • The rest is Gary.

    Loved your book and having found the channel this was the first podcast episode i listened to. Very happy you are taking up this political fight. You make sense. I hope we can make a movement which levels the playing field by raising people up, but agree strongly that a wealth tax is needed, I hope that can start with the billionaires and multinational corporations that manage to avoid the taxes we currently have. Thank you.
