RT by @CarolineLucas: Wow! Caroline Lucas explains why we need a wealth tax - bravo 👏 #BBCQT

Caroline Lucas, "I can certainly tell you that the Green Party would not be proposing tax cuts when public services are decimated, when hospitals have huge waiting lists, when schools are crumbling, when universities can't cope.. The Green Party would be prioritising investment in public services, not cutting taxes"

David Lammy, "Where are you going to get the money to do that?"

Caroline Lucas, "A wealth tax.. Some of the richest people do not pay a proportionate amount of tax.. They have one in Switzerland, in Norway, and the sky hasn't fallen" @CarolineLucas

No surprise that
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23Drax
continues to burn down irreplaceable ancient forests for profits. What’s unbelievable is that the Govt still wants the UK public to pick up the tab for this obscene greenwashing travesty. Another £4bn by 2030? Indefensible.

RT by @CarolineLucas: "Untreated waste illegally flowed into the Shawford Lake Stream, in Hampshire," killing 2,000 fish.

Everything you need to know about @SouthernWater's business model right there, it's totally dependent on breaking the law, polluting for profit.

RT by @CarolineLucas: England's water companies were sold for £6.1bn (net) in 1989 with no debt.

Since then nearly £75bn extracted in dividends. Water bills up by 40% in real terms.

Privatisation has been licence to print money.

The Defence Secretary got an RAF helicopter to fly from London to his house to pick him up and fly him to a Cabinet meeting in Yorkshire, to discuss, wait for it ... public transport.
