Dit kabinet paait de rijkste mensen en grote vervuilende bedrijven, en legt de rekening bij gewone werkende mensen en mensen die nog minder hebben.

Dat moet andersom! Daarom organiseert FNV 27 Juni om 11:00 een grote demo in Nijmegen!

Vandaag komen we op de RU campus alvast samen als voorbereiding! Met #Vakbondsfrietjes!

Ja, omdraaien! En dat kan. Gabriel Zucman schrijft vandaag in The Guardian:

“A minimum tax equal to 2% of wealth for households with net wealth above £100m in the UK would bring in £15bn annually – 0.5% of GDP. £15bn, from just about 1,000 families, each year.

For comparison, the fiscal savings expected from the catastrophic 2024 decision by the UK prime minister, Keir Starmer, to scrap the winter fuel allowance for retirees were estimated at about £1.5bn annually.”

@joepbc En Zucman besluit met

“It is time to break decisively with the perverse logic in which retirees, the poor or immigrants are expected to balance the budget, while the rich are to be allowed to live tax-free in their own parallel society. There cannot be a law more lenient for the rich and powerful than for the rest of us. If ever there was a time to act, it is now.”
