Just a thought for all, the global median salary is less than £1k per annum. There are 200m children affected by malnutrition in the world, 90% of which are located in the Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.
In the UK, the top 1% pay more than 25% of the total income tax to treasury. so contribution from the rich is vital to maintain the whole country’s way of life. So when people moan about others struggling on 120k, they are struggling because of the tax burden to maintain a certain standard of living now expected of a nation such as the UK.
So, we should thank our lucky stars we live in a country where poverty is till the exception rather than the norm. There are large parts of the world where this is the norm and not the exception. This is achieved by creating an economy which relies on taxation and wealth creation.
