I was specifically thinking of the US capital gains structure (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_gains_tax_in_the_Unite... ); this varies wildly by country. US capital gains taxes are always lower than the corresponding income tax bracket, hence my comment; it looks like UK capital gains are potentially higher than the corresponding income tax bracket for the same amount.
