This may seem harsh and it's possible some might think that I'm just playing the WUM card but believe me, I'm not.

It wouldn't work though.

How can people with 6 kids pay tax when they have no job ?

Compulsory sterilisation of the woman springs to mind! And before anyone gets arsey about me be sexist/misogynistic, imho it's easier to sterilise the mother when her partner(s) may not be around any more.

Compulsory work and/or kids removed. At the VERY least end child Benefits.

You already do have such a tax with the 20% VAT you all so happily pay.

The reason that the VAT taxes are so high is in order to equalise the sales tax across the EU plus partly fund the horrible EU, and in part to pay for the socialist welfare state here in the UK.

Re: Boris puts 20% VAT back on Facemasks and Glovess.

"VAT was originally a French idea, started in the 1950s. Britain introduced it as part of its condition of joining the European Economic Community."
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ele...f-history.html

Remember the "Tampon Tax" furore - and yet still people don't understand that this is an EU rule and wonder why we can't get rid until we leave!
It's incredible really, the sheer denialism in some quarters of the sheer depth of the EU's completely unnecessary interference in so many facets of their citizens everyday lives.

"The zero rate will come into effect on January 1st, the first day when EU laws no longer apply to the UK."
