Background

Tax Justice UK is a UK campaign group focused on changing tax policy. It argues that wealth and high incomes should bear more of the cost of public services. Its legal entity is a company limited by guarantee registered in Bristol, giving the campaign an organisational base separate from official tax and forecasting bodies.

The group's published revenue estimates are advocacy claims rather than government or Independent official costings. In October 2026 it said ten reforms could raise more than £60bn a year, including a 2% annual tax on assets above £10m and changes to capital gains tax. The package showed the scale and direction of its preferred policy, but the figures remained the group's own estimates. That distinction matters whenever its proposals are compared with Treasury or Office for Budget Responsibility forecasts.
