My point is that if you start your career owning nothing and work hard, you pay an insane amount of tax on it. Even if you make 100000£ per annum, it will take 20 years to accumulate as much wealth as a guy who inherited a 60 square meter flat. In the meanwhile this other guy hasn’t paid a pound of tax and is maybe receiving some benefit.

I should have specified that the problem is the taxation of work-related income (the main source of income of the poor) compared to the taxation of wealth. On this respect I find particularly egregious the NI hike (an increase of the income tax or the introduction of a property tax would have been more appropriate).
