Let's see...

I make, say, 10000 quids which I have to tax at 20%, leaving me with 
8000 quids.

Or I make, say, 20000 quids which I have to tax at 25%, leaving me with 
15000 quids.

So is there any incentive for me to make more money? Seems to me like 
there is indeed...

Of the whole income? That would be an awful lot indeed, and makes more 
understandable why you're talking about "punishment".
