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.

The poorest in society are already taxed far too much. They'd have to make up the shortfall if we had a completely flat tax rate. That is wrong in my opinion.
