    Things really are getting better under the tories

    Oh well. Its always someone else's fault.

    Britons to spend first five months paying tax - Telegraph

    Tax Freedom Day is the day when Britons begin working for themselves rather than the taxman and falls on May 30 in 2011, compared to May 27 this year, the Adam Smith Institute revealed.

    The main reason for the three extra days is the rise in Value Added Tax, which increases from 17.5 per cent to 20 per cent on January 4.

    Tom Clougherty, executive director of the Adam Smith Institute, described Britons as being “desperately overtaxed”.

    He said: “As well as hitting every household in the country, the VAT hike is going to dent consumer confidence and put a dampener on our economic recovery.”
    I couldn't give two fornicators! Yes, really!

      That's the sort of bloke who, if he were rushed to hospital after a cardiac arrest, he'd complain about his treatment because they won't let him play rugby the next day.

          No - he is the sort of bloke who allegedly used that offshore scheme which in the words of judge enabled reduction of income tax paid to like 2-4% or something.

          He probably thinks that tax freedom day should be 2nd of January or something - for him that it, and screw everybody else who'd have to pay more tax to make up the difference!
