Cut Fuel Taxes !

 

Apparently there`s preasure for it.

 

Are you for motherhood and apple pie ? ! ?

 

Let`s be honest, any fuel tax cut will mean one of two things, either a cut in services, or an increase in income tax.

 

Even if you forget about traffic congestion I`d rather they put tax on fuel than on my income, simple as.

 

What about people who don`t pay income tax ?

Well to be frank I don`t understand how anyone could earn so little that they don`t pay any income tax (or be on benefits) and afford to run a car.

Worse, what about all those people in the black economy, you know Billy the Bodging Builder who wants paying in cash, so he doesn`t pay any tax, whilst we all pay for his/his families services.

Forget that.

The fact he can`t avoid paying tax when he fills his van with fuel, well that`s a bleedin` good thing, and the more he has to pay, the better.

The sooner there is a large cut, not just a freeze, or scrapping of a planned rise, the better; The price of fuel is getting eye watering.

 

It's cheaper to buy 2 Litre of petrol than a pint of beer in the pub!

I take it you don`t pay income tax then........

You've made an assumption that a reduction in fuel duty would result in an increase on income tax, but that's just your assumption isn't it.
