Get Real - make the Super Rich Pay their Fair Share

Laughing all the way to the bank - Lakshi Mittal

The Scottish Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition (STUSC) today condemned as obscene the revelations in the Sunday Times that the richest people in the UK have seen their wealth rise by a colossal 30% in the last year. 

The myth that public sector cuts are the only way that Britain can pay the price for bailing out the banks has been exposed as the Sunday Times published its annual “Rich List.” At  time when all the main political parties are united around the idea that cutting services, jobs and wages is the only way that the bank bailout can be funded, the “List” exposes that the super rich in the UK have seen their earning rise by 29.9% to £335.5 billion.

The Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition (TUSC) launched its manifesto in Dundee on April 20th and immediately called for an end to cuts in the public sector, an end to privatisation and made a call that ordinary people should not have to pay the price for the financial crisis caused by billionaire bankers.

The coalition is standing in 42 seats across the uk.
