In this episode of Richardson’s Rubicon, we dive head-first into the idea of a UK wealth tax on the super rich. Inspired by campaigners like Gary Stevenson and supported by groups like Tax Justice UK, we explore why this idea is gaining momentum – and why some people still think it won’t work.
Also, we’re diving into why this might be the key for Labour to outdo Reform UK. It’s all about rethinking the social contract and coming up with a way to tax the super-rich to make it work. It's a no-brainer.
We look at:
What a 2% wealth tax could raise
How it compares to other countries
What went wrong in places like France and Sweden
Why the UK might actually make it work
What millionaires themselves are saying about it
