Wealth tax campaigner Gary Stevenson quits making content after backlash

Gary Stevenson, a wealth tax campaigner, has quit his popular YouTube channel over health concerns. In a 48-minute video titled “It’s time to say goodbye”, the 39-year-old said he was “knackered” and on the verge of experiencing burnout. “I’ve already gone further than I should have done ... from a health perspective, and I have to stop,” he told his 1.6 million followers on Sunday (26 July). It comes after Mr Stevenson, who advocates for a two per cent wealth tax, received a wave of backlash over his recent documentary How to Get Filthy Rich with Gary Stevenson. Critics accused him of failing to engage with arguments against wealth tax, with one critic calling the documentary “a faintly embarrassing waste of time”.
