Content warning: Zarah Sultana on Question Time

Well done Zarah Sultana -
“A government Budget is not the same as a household budget.”
“The glaring omission in all of this is no one's mentioned wealth taxes. ...
“The magic money tree exists – it's in the City of London, and it's with the billionaires.
“But what you find is the lack of political will, because these parties are bankrolled by the billionaires, so they're definitely not going to tax them.”
Also, tip of the hat to Gary Stevenson and Richard Murphy, who I think have both done a lot to shift the conversation on this stuff.
