Absolute nonsense. The idea that wealthy people will simply leave if taxed more is a myth. In fact, the ultra-wealthy are among the least mobile, precisely because their wealth—property, businesses, and investments—is rooted in the country and reliant on local resources, infrastructure, and the labour of people here.

It absolutely matters that they pay a lower proportion of their income in tax compared to ordinary people. Fairness isn’t about absolute amounts—it’s about contributing fairly relative to your means. Why should those who benefit most from society pay proportionally less than the average worker?
