Paying more taxes is not going to have an effect on utility bills either.


Taxes of course will have to go up, the Tories have been doing it by stealth and Labour when it gets in will have no choice but to do so….but yeah I can totally understand why most people don’t want to pay more Tax. I’m just naive enough to think politicians should be honest with us even if the honesty is negatively received
I think I saw a stat which said we pay less tax per head than many nations

but it's without doubt the rich should be taxed more heavily to ease the burden on others, anyway the point he's making is that tax isn't inherently evil and it's a mistake for politicians to imply otherwise
