A Scottish report proposes a 2% wealth tax on the top 10 families to lift 30,000 children out of poverty, backed by 79% of Scots.
A report by the Scottish Trades Union Congress suggests a 2% annual wealth tax on Scotland’s 10 richest families—each worth over £10 million—could raise £492 million yearly, enough to lift more than 30,000 children out of poverty or fund thousands of new public sector workers.
The study highlights extreme wealth concentration, noting the top 10 families hold more wealth than the poorest 28% of Scots.
Public opinion shows strong support, with 79% of Scots backing taxes on the ultra-rich over spending cuts.
The report calls for reforming the tax system, including replacing council tax with a proportional property tax and advancing UK-wide wealth taxation.
