Inequality is not an accident. It is not natural. And it is not inevitable.
According to the United Nations’ World Inequality Report, inequality results from deliberate political and institutional choices. This video explains what that means for the UK – and why extreme concentrations of wealth now threaten democracy, climate stability, and social cohesion.
I examine the evidence behind the report, the role Britain has played in designing inequality at home and abroad, and why progressive taxation and redistribution are proven tools for change.
The question is no longer whether alternatives exist.
It is whether our politicians are willing to choose them.
