You say you'd be happy to pay more tax? Try putting forward a motion at the next Tory conference, good luck ! If it's not increasing the wealth of those there they won't be interested.

Jeremy has said 'sorry' anyway, so that's all sorted then....

Once again you focused on half of my statement, overlooking the second part of the statement about alternative approaches.

btw, last Tax Year, as I contracted half the year and was Permie the rest, I paid quite a lot in PAYE and NI, so you can see I have no issue paying tax (I could have drastically reduced my Tax and NI bill by setting up as a Limited Company, but chose not to). Also, I haven’t been to a Party Conference in over 20 years.

How much extra tax would you personally be willing to pay?
