"Taxation
As citizens we have to accept that we must be taxed on our income to allow the state to provide the social services that make this nation a civilized place to live.. For those blessed with extreme wealth we must look at taxing not only income but capital; it hardly seems fair that a few hundred families should be able to retain vast riches for hundreds of years because they influence the politics of the day.
Small Businesses
As well as encouraging small, local businesses, we also have to revolutionise our farming industry to support small, productive cooperatives of family-owned ventures over big agriculture. We have to motivate small business to create jobs & prosperity. ItÔÇÖs time that instead of looking for big business to keep Britain working, we look to small entrepreneurs who have kept their communities afloat.
Tax avoidance
A person or company that dodges their tax responsibility through legal or illegal means is far worse & more dangerous than your run of the mill cat burglar. We have to start treating the grand-scale tax avoidance which firms like Apple, Starbucks & Google have been allowed to perpetuate as a crime against the state.
There is very little to differentiate between the moral evil of someone who sells a state secret for cash & someone who stashes hundreds of millions of pounds offshore, preventing hospitals, schools, the military & social welfare from being properly funded.
It isnÔÇÖt the benefits cheat, the pensioner with the bus pass or the people who have difficulty making ends meet on a zero hours contracts & need to use a foodbank that are emptying the coffers of this state. It is the corporations, their well paid executives, the indolent rich & the citizens of opulence who have brought a decline to the western world & the people of this country."

in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
