###if that is to be the case people should be able to say where they want it to be spent and not on the junkies and other bums and stiffs.....people pay enough tax earning that sort of money in the ist place .....but if there business goes down and they lose most everything ...not a penny comes back ......the more bums we get the more the taxes go up to bloody keep them.....thats my view...and before the self rightessness do gooders come on ...i dont mean the GENUINLY DISABLED......which is the usual red herring thrown in....or the pensioners who have paid there share......cappy

Re: Bacon Tax
The mention of sugar tax reminded me of the most tight arsed bloke i ever met. It was when we had a sugar shortage, some may recall, would have been in the seventies , and at work one of the guys ran the tea boat, and stated he had to put it up another 5p, at which point *tight ***** said he didn't agree because he did not take sugar in his tea, the guy running the tea boat, said, put it on some fry bread then, nothing i can do about it. Anyway* tight *****, came in every shift with a plastic bag and took two teaspoons of sugar, and put in the plastic bag, at the end of 6 weeks he weighed it and tried to sell it back to the tea boat, true story, kt
