Follow the money to the real truth: MORE TAXES NEEDED to save us all.
Meat tax to fight 'climate change'...
Many people in Britain opposed income tax, on principle, because the disclosure of personal income represented an unacceptable governmental intrusion into private matters, and a potential threat to personal liberty. In fact the first permanent British income tax was not introduced until 1842, and the issue remained intensely controversial well into the 20th century. When the window tax was introduced, it consisted of two parts: a flat-rate house tax of 2 shillings per house (equivalent to £12.51 in 2015), and a variable tax for the number of windows above ten windows in the house. Properties with between ten and twenty windows paid an extra four shillings (equivalent to £25.03 in 2015), and those above twenty windows paid an extra eight shillings (equivalent to £50.06 in 2015)
