Roger Silson #FBPE @rogsilson.bsky.social · 6hFair play to Henry Winter for citing Hillsborough as a bigger sporting injustice than the Man. City situation. As much as City have behaved appallingly, people lost their lives at Hillsborough and were then smeared by the authorities, to cover up their own incompetence. 000

Someone earning £20k a year is almost certainly paying between 3% and 20% of their net worth a year in tax, just on £20k. Rishi Sunak paid a maximum of 0.096% of his net worth in tax in 2023. Pennies, by comparison. 033
Roger Silson #FBPE @rogsilson.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Yes, fair point, it does assume the 40% band moves in the same way. You're right (and my assumption was wrong) as you could cap the benefit of the tax change by not moving the 40% band. My concern remains that the price of making the change shouldn't be borne by those most in need. 110
Roger Silson #FBPE @rogsilson.bsky.social · 27/09/2026To a degree, I don't mind what the mechanism is, but the 60% marginal tax rate is an issue. Personally I would favour a mechanism which caps the tax free allowance at 20% benefit, which wouldn't create the issue that tapering creates at the top end of the band. 021
Roger Silson #FBPE @rogsilson.bsky.social · 26/09/2026In isolation this would disproportionately benefit high earners, who would get £1,200. It would be paid for by cutting benefits and services, disproportionately used by lower earners. It would only work if high earners benefit is capped, and it's paid for by taxing wealth. 210
