High Pay Commission

UKpopdems is not a left-wing party; we are a party for the empowerment of ordinary people. The job of any government is to promote the growth of national wealth, and to make wise decisions on spending some of this wealth to promote individual, family and community well-being for the vast majority of the British people. That's it, but corrupt modern politics has lost sight of that goal in favour of personal gain and party dogma.
Regarding high pay, it is UNFAIR high pay that rankles. High earners should be seen to deserve their pay and UKpopdems has been an innovater in suggesting that the formula for acceptable high pay depends on what value is returned to the well-being of society. For example, the more people a high earner employs, especially disadvantaged employees; the higher the wages paid; the more charitable contributions and projects of value to society are promoted - then those are reasons why someone should be allowed to keep more of their higher earnings. Our policy is that the selfish high earners should pay higher taxes on all their income from whatever source - because these same selfish people have a nasty habit of hiding their true income behind layers and layers of loopholes. In summary then, philanthropic high earners should keep more of their money than selfish ones. Isn't that simple?
