The median FTSE 100 CEO earns over £5 million a year. That’s 130 times more than the average UK worker, and a £1 million pay rise in the last 3 years alone. When so many people are struggling to pay the bills, is it right that fat cat CEOs are cashing in?

Economist @gabrielzucman.bsky.social explains how Amazon boss Jeff Bezos paid no income taxes in 2011 despite being worth around $18 billion at the time. Instead, Bezos filed for and received $4000 worth of ‘family benefits’ due to low income 🤯 #taxthesuperrich
A 2% wealth tax on just the richest 15 families in the UK could raise over £5 billion a year. That could cut household energy bills by an average of £150 a year using @jrf-uk.bsky.social’s Rising Block Tariff proposal. Check our our full Sunday Times Rich List analysis at sharethewealth.org.uk
A tiny 2% annual wealth tax could raise over £5bn a year from the top 15 billionaires on the Sunday Times Rich List alone. That could cut household energy bills by an average of £150 a year using @jrf-uk.bsky.social's Rising Block Tariff proposal. So why isn't the government doing it now?
Our response to the Sunday Times Rich List
The 350 richest families in the UK now hold £784Bn. That's more than the UK spends annually on healthcare, education, housing, defence & policing COMBINED. While millions struggle, extreme wealth keeps piling up. Britain has enough wealth for everyone to thrive, we just need the courage to tax it.
The vast majority of millionaires are willing to pay *more* tax and have no intention of leaving the UK – new polling from @patmillsuk.bsky.social
Millionaires are five times more concerned about doctors leaving the UK than they are about other millionaires emigrating 💸 Our poll also found millionaires are proud to live in the UK, and they're willing to pay more tax to invest in our country and its young people.
BP’s profits have surged to $3.2bn (£2.4bn) in the first 3 months of this year because of the war in Iran. Meanwhile your energy bills are set to rise by £332 a year in July. Is it time to tax these excess profits, and use the money to cut bills and support our public services?
Crypto-billionaire Christopher Harborne gave Nigel Farage £5 million as a personal gift in 2024, shortly before the Reform UK leader made the decision to run as an MP. Farage did not declare the gift - it was exposed by a Guardian investigation 🤯
NEW: BP’s profits for the first three months of this year have more than doubled to £2.4 billion because of the war in Iran. Meanwhile your energy bills are set to rise by £322 a year in July.
Jemma Forte on why billionaires and big corporations should pay more tax 👏 #TaxTheSuperRich @jemmaforte.bsky.social
A new Bank of England report has warned that the introduction of digital price labels could mean that supermarkets introduce ‘dynamic surge pricing’ for everyday goods like food. Is this just another excuse for big profiteering corporations to rip us off?
Cryptocurrency billionaire Ben Delo has announced he is moving back to the UK from Hong Kong to donate £4 million to Reform UK. Reform UK was given £12 million by billionaire cryptocurrency investor Christopher Harborne in 2025.
Big oil companies are set to make huge profits because of the Iran war. We should tax those excess profits and use the money to cut energy bills, which are set to soar.
Reform UK's Deputy Leader Richard Tice avoided nearly £600,000 in tax on multi-million pound profits between 2018-2021 after obtaining a rare legal status for his company. In 2025 he donated over £600,000 to Reform UK. Less money for public services, and more for Reform UK?

Broadcaster Phil Jones calls for the super-rich and banks to pay more tax in order to fund affordable housing and our NHS
Should we follow the US and other states by taxing according to nationality, not residency, to make sure Dubai tax exiles pay their taxes?
The big 4 banks made £45.7 billion in profits in 2025. Imposing a similar windfall tax to oil and gas companies on the UK income of HSBC, Barclays, Natwest and Lloyds would raise billions to invest in the NHS.
CEO of Barclays CS Venkatakrishnan was paid £15 million in 2025, up from the £11.6 million he earned in 2024. When so many of us are struggling to pay the bills, should the bosses of big British banks be getting multi-million pound pay rises?
Gary Lineker calls out the hypocrisy of billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who lives in Monaco, for his comments saying that the UK has been ‘colonised’ by immigrants.
Why are 8 out of the UK’s 10 richest people missing from The Sunday Times Tax List? When they are worth tens of billions of pounds, surely they should be on the list of the country’s biggest taxpayers? #TaxTheSuperRich

By midday today the average FTSE 100 CEO has already made more money than the average worker in the UK earns all year, according to analysis from @highpaycentre.bsky.social. When so many of us are struggling to pay the bills, is it right that fat cat CEOs are raking it in? #FatCatTuesday
