This is frankly not true. They have news but also opinion pieces and it is important to separate the two. It is also important to look at the specific journalist/guest who wrote it which they make sure to feature prominently at the top along with any disclosures of shares/positions.
They for example often publish articles encouraging lower taxes, but also those advocating for wealth taxes, land value taxes, estate taxes, non-dom/exit fees which are often the ones which specifically target the ultra rich.
The important thing to note is that on any financial trade, a party is on each side, and both will be reading the FT so they have a vested interest in trying to present both sides to capture this audience.
There are heavy-weight bond investors for example, who believe government debt is too high, and we need to tax the ultra-wealthy in order to reduce deficits.
