The super-rich aren't leaving. It's time we properly taxed the multi-millionaires and billionaires. #WealthTax
“Billionaires don’t get their £ from their work. They get their £ from their assets….their assets are HERE.” Don’t believe the hype. The rich can threaten to leave all they want, but what they own will still be here. Tax the rich, whether they like it or not. @garyseconomics
