You've got it completely wrong there is no higher taxes the last budget gave a tax break to millionaire pensioner another to Bankers and the fossil industry the 1% doubled their wealth over the last 2 years Trickle Down Supply Side Economics is doing exactly what its designed to do.
Look at Sunak he payed 20% on the bulk of his income because CGT doesn't match income tax and even then if your salaried your paying NI as well.

Luxury goods boom in Britain as super-rich youngsters buck the recession
Rich kids fuel sales of brands such as Burberry, Louis Vuitton and Gucci
They’re young, rich and mortgage-free, and the scions of the 1% are having a roaring twenties.
Despite the economic gloom currently shrouding the UK and many other western countries, sales of luxury brands have been booming and growing numbers of buyers are young adults.
Swiss watches, Louis Vuitton trainers, rare Birkin bags and 81-year-old whiskies are among the products that are fuelling impressive growth in the bottom lines of luxury brands such as LVMH, Burberry and Kering.
Imports of Swiss watches to the UK were up by 31% in the first half of 2022, according to the Federation of the Swiss Watch Industry – the average spend at the Watches of Switzerland group being about £6,000. Meanwhile, sales of watches below £2,500, sometimes referred to as “mid-range”, are falling.
