We all need to eat less meat. I couldn't become a vegan, or even just a vegetarian, but if we only ate meat for 2 days each week then that would make a huge difference. Quite how you can make this happen without bumping up the cost of meat (like how sugar tax & minimum alcohol pricing in Scotland works) I don't know, but something is needed.
My wife and I have lost our winter fuel payment. Am I angry? No. Our combined pensions, though not fantastic, are sufficient for us to survive without it. I would rather the money goes to those who really need it. As for those rich people who are complaining about paying their fair share of tax, I'm happy to help them make arrangements to move abroad.
“Those who really need it”? Like migrants turning up on the beach and being given luxury flats, heating, healthcare, money to spend. Those people? People who have worked hard to achieve what they have in life do not deserve to have their money redistributed to people who have not contributed. Socialism is a race to the bottom. Good luck to those people protecting their hard earned assets.
In 1980, the richest 1% of UK earners paid around 11% of the total income tax. This is significantly lower than the approximately 28% they contribute today. Over the decades, the tax burden on the top 1% has increased as income inequality grew and tax policies were adjusted. During that time, the tax system was less progressive compared to recent years, and the share of income tax paid by the wealthiest was a smaller proportion of the total.
In 1980, the overall tax system was less progressive than today. While the richest 1% contributed significantly to income tax (about 11%), their share of other taxes like National Insurance, VAT, and Capital Gains Tax was lower, particularly because of favorable tax rates and loopholes.

I lived with Dale for a year. He helped me leave an abusive situation. I am shocked to see how greedy he has become, money has changed him. He has lost his moral compass.
I remember paying 65% of the income tax in the Netherlands on incomes above 50,000 Euros, and my income was between 100,000 and 120.000 Euros a year. I thought it was normal. We have to support each other and share our wealth. You must do it if you want equality, peace and contentment in your society. You have to accept that there will always be people with drugs-, alcohol, and mental problems, and to avoid crimes, you have to support them. Nobody needs an excessive amount of money. It is sick. Most of the time, a good job, an excellent salary, and a good education have nothing to do with hard work, just luck and being born into a well-off family.
On his comments about the proposal that all rented property by EPC C grade or better, it is a great policy but with a couple of huge flaws: 1. EPC methodology is hopeless, everyone who studies it agrees with that so it needs to be replaced otherwise we will end up with "upgrades" to rental properties that really do not achieve much 2. A maximum spend of £10k - in my experience of dealing with properties built in the 1950s or earlier, that is usually not enough even in the north of England. But the bigger problem, is that in many properties based on Government's own analysis the work might save tenant £200 per year in heating costs but the landlord would probably need to increase the rent by £75-90 per month (depends on what rate of return landlord is looking at and how much of the rent is taken in agent fees), so the economics simply do not work unless there is some government scheme to reduce the cost
The expression fair share drives me crazy...what does that mean...how about we all pay the same amount...is that fair? How's about we all pay the same percentage...is that fair? How about if you're a single parent, should you pay the same?....the tax system in the UK is broken, too complicated, too many loopholes, make it simple with clear percentages for everyone to pay and no loopholes.
Pay based on how much you get out of the country - if you're rich and have a business chances are you've probably made a lot of money out of poor people.

@@MalavitaOfBByou're right to be pissed off for giving up so much of your wage to taxes, but you're directing your anger in the wrong place. The real crooks are the people who don't earn a wage, whose wealth is based on owned land and property, inheritance and stock. If they pay any tax, it's a pittance by comparison to top PAYE earners as a percentage of income. The tax system in the UK is rigged in favour of wealthy land owners and the already rich.
He's spot on. We should stop worrying about the minority of rich tax dodgers who want to leave the UK. Who cares. If the boss of Tescos leaves, Sainsbury's will expand. If the boss of Sainsbury's leaves, Aldi will expand. Growth is driven by demand. Not a hand full of tax dodgers who are experts at extracting wealth from the economy. Most will never leave.
important distinction to make; farmers and factory farms are two completely different entities. its like grouping grouping market stall holders in with supermarkets.
The thought of leaving this country through much higher taxation is just part of the equation, along with run down high streets, illegal boats, culture changes, astonishing high prices whether property or groceries and definitely energy , the weather and just really a rubbish quality of life. Let’s face it if you are a high earner then you could say that you have had a contribution to society in some way.

Dale Vince is great no nonsense down to Earth full respect didn’t realise farming polluted the rivers more than water companies I learnt something here thanks Dale

@@tommoric376I think he's a goodun' but he does make the odd tactical statement in order to ingratiate himself with the Starmer Party.

As such he says and does what is in his business interests. But I still like him because I think he puts environmental concerns first.
There's the waste from over 20 million chickens currently being released into the river Wye. Water is taken from the river further downstream to water crops. We are literally eating sh*t.
I like Dale Vince - but how can he say it makes sense to remove winter fuel payments from pensioners but that 'people who live in damp cold homes get ill, in the extreme cases they die'.
Because it serves a benefit for him to do so. His business is in the green energy market, and there's nothing better than chaos to push the public into convincing a government to spend rabid amounts of money on projects it cannot afford just to win some votes. In the end, that money will be going towards his company, and by extension his back pocket.
Why shouldn't they leave? If they have better options, then they shpuld take them and move their assets as well. Rational choices are good ones generally.
People and companies shouldn't be allowed to profit from our country if they're not paying taxes in our country. You are privilaged to access the british public in whatever you are manufacturing, selling, service you're providing. Now you get to pay taxes to help the country you are privilaged to access.
Wealthy people should be allowed to leave the UK, if they want to, but should only be allowed to take a restricted amount of money out of the UK eg £50,000. Other countries to this.
Having lived with the guy for a year I don't think that would be a great idea.

We need someone straight and steady as PM...Corbyn had a wonderful manifesto. Pity Dale is backing the people who backstabbed the best PM we were never allowed to have
Farming Argument might be valid with the big companies but not small farmers. Importing meat is the biggest issue. We have cows who naturally mow the field instead of using petrol mowers. Those cows can then produce meat. There are sections of some fields where you need cows to eat the field contents because a mower isn't viable or doesn't do the job well.
You never need cows to mow the fields! The best thing about reducing meat consumption is that it frees up land to be rewilded: absorbing carbon, improving biodiversity, and increasing soil health to name but a few of the myriad of benefits!
@@andrewdixon2730 Going back to being hunter-gatherers in a rewilded land is cloud-cuckoo. The majority would starve, not just Starmer’s target groups, children of the poor & all the elderly.

You starve if you want to… I’m going to get breakfast.
O lordy! Yes - some Pensioners are very well off and some children are very poor. However, some children are very well off and some pensioners are very poor. No child should go hungry and no pensioner cold. Similarly, factory farming pollution does not take away the impact of water companies' pollution. Please stop using simplistic arguments to pit one group against another. Governments are supposed to address all issues and donors - if they are truly for the country - shouldn't be cherry-picking, either.
I agree. One problem is that people on low incomes can't afford anywhere or anything now. A fulltime job doesn't cover bills like before yet people still need people doing those jobs. Something needs to happen. Certainly low cost basic housing for people. People need to think out of the box 100%.
Yes but a far larger proportion of the pension population are better off than the portion of well of younger people. Why don’t all people get a winter fuel allowance?
@@user-pp9yk3tu4z Because politicians regard people as livestock to be exploited then discarded if no longer able to contribute money & power (money & power being interchangeable rather like Mass & Energy in the physical world). Culling pensioners who may not support the grift makes sound sense to any politician devoid of humanity, as does aborting the unborn if they are likely to be unable to contribute in the short term or might make the mother less economically exploitable. Only those likely to support the grift should be allowed to be carried to term, then schooled (not educated) to perpetuate the capitalist 'machine'. The answer to your question summarises to BECAUSE POLITICIANS CARE ABOUT ACQUIRING & KEEPING POWER, NEVER ABOUT PEOPLE.
@@user-pp9yk3tu4z We should all be well off enough not to even need a Winter Fuel Allowance. Why do we look at another group and feel that "they have it good" (when many of them don't)?

We all need to eat less meat. I couldn't become a vegan, or even just a vegetarian, but if we only ate meat for 2 days each week then that would make a huge difference. Quite how you can make this happen without bumping up the cost of meat (like how sugar tax & minimum alcohol pricing in Scotland works) I don't know, but something is needed.
My wife and I have lost our winter fuel payment. Am I angry? No. Our combined pensions, though not fantastic, are sufficient for us to survive without it. I would rather the money goes to those who really need it. As for those rich people who are complaining about paying their fair share of tax, I'm happy to help them make arrangements to move abroad.
In 1980 the richest 1% payed 8% of all income tax in the UK, now they pay 28% . Thoughts ?
“Those who really need it”? Like migrants turning up on the beach and being given luxury flats, heating, healthcare, money to spend. Those people? People who have worked hard to achieve what they have in life do not deserve to have their money redistributed to people who have not contributed. Socialism is a race to the bottom. Good luck to those people protecting their hard earned assets.
In 1980, the richest 1% of UK earners paid around 11% of the total income tax. This is significantly lower than the approximately 28% they contribute today. Over the decades, the tax burden on the top 1% has increased as income inequality grew and tax policies were adjusted. During that time, the tax system was less progressive compared to recent years, and the share of income tax paid by the wealthiest was a smaller proportion of the total.
In 1980, the overall tax system was less progressive than today. While the richest 1% contributed significantly to income tax (about 11%), their share of other taxes like National Insurance, VAT, and Capital Gains Tax was lower, particularly because of favorable tax rates and loopholes.
@@BENTWOONEZERO tax has increased on everyone. There are far more rich now, too.

I lived with Dale for a year. He helped me leave an abusive situation. I am shocked to see how greedy he has become, money has changed him. He has lost his moral compass.
I remember paying 65% of the income tax in the Netherlands on incomes above 50,000 Euros, and my income was between 100,000 and 120.000 Euros a year. I thought it was normal. We have to support each other and share our wealth. You must do it if you want equality, peace and contentment in your society. You have to accept that there will always be people with drugs-, alcohol, and mental problems, and to avoid crimes, you have to support them. Nobody needs an excessive amount of money. It is sick. Most of the time, a good job, an excellent salary, and a good education have nothing to do with hard work, just luck and being born into a well-off family.
totally agree with him
He's a cool dude who makes sense and speaks without bs
On his comments about the proposal that all rented property by EPC C grade or better, it is a great policy but with a couple of huge flaws:
1. EPC methodology is hopeless, everyone who studies it agrees with that so it needs to be replaced otherwise we will end up with "upgrades" to rental properties that really do not achieve much
2. A maximum spend of £10k - in my experience of dealing with properties built in the 1950s or earlier, that is usually not enough even in the north of England. But the bigger problem, is that in many properties based on Government's own analysis the work might save tenant £200 per year in heating costs but the landlord would probably need to increase the rent by £75-90 per month (depends on what rate of return landlord is looking at and how much of the rent is taken in agent fees), so the economics simply do not work unless there is some government scheme to reduce the cost
The expression fair share drives me crazy...what does that mean...how about we all pay the same amount...is that fair? How's about we all pay the same percentage...is that fair? How about if you're a single parent, should you pay the same?....the tax system in the UK is broken, too complicated, too many loopholes, make it simple with clear percentages for everyone to pay and no loopholes.
Pay based on how much you get out of the country - if you're rich and have a business chances are you've probably made a lot of money out of poor people.
@@partyringsparty why should you pay more if you earn more? how about we pay tax on lifetime earnings so older people pay more and younger people pay less...I feel that's fair...you had one good year of working overtime and the government takes 50% of your pay.
@@MalavitaOfBByou're right to be pissed off for giving up so much of your wage to taxes, but you're directing your anger in the wrong place.
The real crooks are the people who don't earn a wage, whose wealth is based on owned land and property, inheritance and stock. If they pay any tax, it's a pittance by comparison to top PAYE earners as a percentage of income.
The tax system in the UK is rigged in favour of wealthy land owners and the already rich.
@@MalavitaOfBB That's how tax works already, you pay income tax every month you're alive and working.
He's spot on. We should stop worrying about the minority of rich tax dodgers who want to leave the UK. Who cares. If the boss of Tescos leaves, Sainsbury's will expand.

important distinction to make; farmers and factory farms are two completely different entities. its like grouping grouping market stall holders in with supermarkets.
The thought of leaving this country through much higher taxation is just part of the equation, along with run down high streets, illegal boats, culture changes, astonishing high prices whether property or groceries and definitely energy , the weather and just really a rubbish quality of life. Let’s face it if you are a high earner then you could say that you have had a contribution to society in some way.
The decision has been made for you, go and enjoy another country, and improve the quality of life you have now ……. This country don’t care about you but just your money and take take take that of which you have earned over many years of hard work.
End factory farming exactly.

Dale Vince is great no nonsense down to Earth full respect didn’t realise farming polluted the rivers more than water companies I learnt something here thanks Dale
He's a grifter..
I wasn't sure it was worse than sewage discharges by water companies, but effluence from intensive farming has been ruinous for river health in Ireland, so it's definitely a known problem.
@@tommoric376I think he's a goodun' but he does make the odd tactical statement in order to ingratiate himself with the Starmer Party. I assume that's to do with his interest in being involved with GB Energy. I'm a happy Ecotricity customer but I still acknowledge that Mr. Vince is a capitalist and a business person. As such he says and does what is in his business interests. But I still like him because I think he puts environmental concerns first.
There's the waste from over 20 million chickens currently being released into the river Wye. Water is taken from the river further downstream to water crops. We are literally eating sh*t.
Last time I checked farmers were not making billions from pollution? At the cost of the tax payer?
I like Dale Vince - but how can he say it makes sense to remove winter fuel payments from pensioners but that 'people who live in damp cold homes get ill, in the extreme cases they die'.
Because it serves a benefit for him to do so. His business is in the green energy market, and there's nothing better than chaos to push the public into convincing a government to spend rabid amounts of money on projects it cannot afford just to win some votes.
In the end, that money will be going towards his company, and by extension his back pocket.
Why shouldn't they leave? If they have better options, then they shpuld take them and move their assets as well. Rational choices are good ones generally.

People and companies shouldn't be allowed to profit from our country if they're not paying taxes in our country. You are privilaged to access the british public in whatever you are manufacturing, selling, service you're providing. Now you get to pay taxes to help the country you are privilaged to access.
Wealthy people should be allowed to leave the UK, if they want to, but should only be allowed to take a restricted amount of money out of the UK eg £50,000. Other countries to this.

Farming Argument might be valid with the big companies but not small farmers. Importing meat is the biggest issue. We have cows who naturally mow the field instead of using petrol mowers. Those cows can then produce meat. There are sections of some fields where you need cows to eat the field contents because a mower isn't viable or doesn't do the job well.
He said industrial farming
You never need cows to mow the fields! The best thing about reducing meat consumption is that it frees up land to be rewilded: absorbing carbon, improving biodiversity, and increasing soil health to name but a few of the myriad of benefits!
@@andrewdixon2730 Going back to being hunter-gatherers in a rewilded land is cloud-cuckoo. The majority would starve, not just Starmer’s target groups, children of the poor & all the elderly.

O lordy! Yes - some Pensioners are very well off and some children are very poor. However, some children are very well off and some pensioners are very poor. No child should go hungry and no pensioner cold. Similarly, factory farming pollution does not take away the impact of water companies' pollution. Please stop using simplistic arguments to pit one group against another. Governments are supposed to address all issues and donors - if they are truly for the country - shouldn't be cherry-picking, either.
No farmers = no food.
No politicians = no problems... when did you ever see any politician actually make any problem less?
I agree. One problem is that people on low incomes can't afford anywhere or anything now. A fulltime job doesn't cover bills like before yet people still need people doing those jobs. Something needs to happen. Certainly low cost basic housing for people. People need to think out of the box 100%.
Yes but a far larger proportion of the pension population are better off than the portion of well of younger people. Why don’t all people get a winter fuel allowance?
@@user-pp9yk3tu4z Because politicians regard people as livestock to be exploited then discarded if no longer able to contribute money & power (money & power being interchangeable rather like Mass & Energy in the physical world).
Culling pensioners who may not support the grift makes sound sense to any politician devoid of humanity, as does aborting the unborn if they are likely to be unable to contribute in the short term or might make the mother less economically exploitable. Only those likely to support the grift should be allowed to be carried to term, then schooled (not educated) to perpetuate the capitalist 'machine'. The answer to your question summarises to BECAUSE POLITICIANS CARE ABOUT ACQUIRING & KEEPING POWER, NEVER ABOUT PEOPLE.
@@user-pp9yk3tu4z We should all be well off enough not to even need a Winter Fuel Allowance. Why do we look at another group and feel that "they have it good" (when many of them don't)? We keep falling for this game, one group looking sideways at another, whilst politicians have theirs paid all year round, by us?
