In the UK, the top 0.1% of earners pay more income tax than the entire bottom 50%. The rich are paying a “fair share” - why does Reeves pretend otherwise? My column:-

"Public services now need to live within their means because I'm really clear, I'm not coming back with more borrowing or more taxes." [Labour’s Rachel Reeves to CBI, November 2024] Please share this widely…just in case she is tempted to forget…
