Laws bent for the rich. Wages taxed at marginal rates of 20% – 45% plus national insurance contributions (NIC). Capital gains taxed at 18% to 32%, no NIC . Dividends taxed at 8.75% to 39.35%, no NIC. Return on wealth must not be taxed at lower rates.
Nothing will change until the political system is freed from the clutches of corporations and the super-rich
The law is being used to enforce existing power structures for the benefit of the few
