NEW REPORT 🧵| Our 2024 #LifeInTheUK research shows that quality of life in the UK has stagnated with no improvement from 2023 to 2024. At the same time, we’re facing a democratic crisis as trust in political systems & institutions hits a record low.

✈️NEW RESEARCH ✈️ We need to fly less to stop climate breakdown. But excessive flying is dominated by the well-off. In Western Europe, the richer you are, the more likely you are to fly three or more times a year. It’s the wealthiest who need to reduce their flying the most.

A #FrequentFlyingLevy would reduce excessive flights for wealthy passengers, while raising billions to tackle the climate crisis. Want to make it a reality? Sign the petition now! https://t.co/z55vBPJWbC

So how does one tax the superrich exactly? 🤔 We've taken a page & some pictures out of wikiHow's book for our guide on how govt's can do just this. Govt's can raise $2 TRILLION a year by following the example of Spain’s wealth tax on the richest 0.5%. https://t.co/lfR07BsuE4

This is an astonishing resignation letter from Mark Smith of the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office. We wait with bated breath for this extremely serious matter to be covered by all of the mainstream media & for government ministers to be rigorously questioned.
