We expect UK central government departments to spend £415.5 billion on the day-to-day ('current') running costs of public services. This is 35 per cent of public spending. The biggest items are health (£168.2 billion), education (£77.1 billion) and defence (£32.1 billion). (Source OBR)
A ten-per-cent (9bn) nurses increase would be nearly 20% of current health spending. #taxjustice #FairTaxCouncil #RobinHoodTaxUK #enoughisenough

The UK has approximately 300,000 nurses and are paid annually around 33,300. A ten-per-cent increase would amount to just over 3000 a year, costing the country 9bn. #taxjustice #FairTaxCouncil #RobinHoodTaxUK #enoughisenough

The British are big readers. But UK public libraries are now at risk of cuts despite 'unprecedented' rise in users who often come in to get advice about food and fuel poverty. Some libraries are now running foodbanks. #taxjustice #TaxJusticeNet #FairTaxCouncil #RobinHoodTaxUK #enoughisenough #foodbank

When I studied for my MA at B'ham Uni, at coffee time the admin unconsciously sat at one end of the canteen and the academia people at the other. Long before the current antagonism. (And ne'er the twain shall meet?) #taxjustice #TaxJusticeNet #FairTaxCouncil #RobinHoodTaxUK

The trouble with top level admin people is, in the last analysis, they don't give a damn about education. Monetization means they might as well be selling vacuum cleaners. #taxjustice #TaxJusticeNet #FairTaxCouncil #RobinHoodTaxUK #enoughisenough #foodbank

What do wealthy people do with all those rooms? I imagine many of them just gather cold air and lie empty. (It doesn't cost you anything to feel rich.) #taxjustice #TaxJusticeNet #FairTaxCouncil #RobinHoodTaxUK #enoughisenough #foodbank

Still got a fireplace? Indian women collect leaves for winter fuel. Try rolled up (wired) paper. I used to use dry logs from a local woodland. The fuel that warms you twice. (Whoops!). #taxjustice #TaxJusticeNet #FairTaxCouncil #RobinHoodTaxUK #enoughisenough #foodbank

The middle unlikely to switch to Labour. Nifty, huh? #taxjustice #TaxJusticeNet #FairTaxCouncil #RobinHoodTaxUK #enoughisenough #foodbank
