We expose the extreme wealth of the super-rich and the profiteering of big corporations. https://sharethewealth.org.uk/

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?

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.

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 🤯

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.

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?

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?
