Fuel

[graafen]

As the fuel prices in this country continue to climb rumours are starting to fly around that another fuel protest is immenent. Speaking with my work colleagues it seems there are mixed feelings about this, with quite a few not wanting this to happen because they are too dependant on their cars.

So I put this to you, if we don't protest what do we do instead? How can we force the goverment to reduce the tax on fuel?

Put VAT on childrens' clothes, a sort of 'breeder tax' if you will :P

I would have said put more tax on tobacco, but I know how much you love the pipe smoking...

I'd put a duty on every second+ child.

YES.

Seconded.

I don't smoke that much, so extra duty on tobacco wouldn't really affect me.

Besides, pipe tobacco goes quite far. :)

Up the tax on tobacco and introduce the 'breeder tax' :P
