We'll have to disagree on that one.
I think everyone should pay the same rate of tax.
True equality means everyone should pay the same percentage of their income in tax, which of course means in financial terms, the wealthier will pay more.
Not party politics, just my own thoughts, as someone who believes in the concept of equality, and that it should be applicable to all, otherwise it's a nonsense.
