    Call things what they are, not a tax.

    You should practice it.

    Levy is a Tax.

    opposition requires

    Doesn’t require anything. It only requires personal opinion. Parliament runs on it.

    Of course the privacy impact is huge. privacy just does not matter to the average working voting person trying to put groceries on the table.

    MPs wont change the stance here because people want to be protected by anonymity. Frankly they won’t change stance at all. Its a certainty at this point.

    But it will increase the cost of business which will be passed on and definitely exploited.

    “Wont somebody think of the children”

    Plenty of children starving in the UK because Government services cant raise revenue to maintain existing levels of public services.

    I look to the UK and see the future of western economies. Boned badly, society highly controlled with a large overall tax burden, years of immigration to keep the budget balaced on paper increasing the impact all to delay the fallout. And yes while this will most likely not register a blip to the CPI, its still yet another cut in the wrong direction.
