Seems a bit misleading to title the video where does the government get its money from and then to only talk about tax in the video. This was a good breakdown of where the government gets its taxes from, which probably ought to have been the title in truth.

What you're not saying these tax mention will only pay for fraction of Government debt , presently around 6 trillion .
Most of the tax what you do not mention is coming from BoE buying government Gilts and Central Banks creating fiat currency out of thin air .
Also the other covert tax is through inflation .
