Activists dumped bags of manure under the Ritz London’s iconic Christmas tree to demand an immediate tax on “extreme wealth.”
Footage released by Take Back Power shows three people at the Mayfair hotel, pulling out three plastic bags and emptying them onto the ground.
In a statement on their website, Take Back Power called on the UK government to establish a “permanent House of the People—a citizens’ assembly chosen by democratic lottery, with the power to tax extreme wealth and reform Britain.”
“The super-rich have more than doubled their wealth since the pandemic, while this Christmas, a third of UK children live in poverty. It’s time ordinary people—those most affected by inequality—have a say in how wealth is taxed,” a Take Back Power spokesperson said.
