This is just the start of the damage Allinson and Alf etc. are causing the island. This needs sending to Allinson and Cannan. Maybe 2000 of us should forward it to them all at once? Cut your cloth...not our throats. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cut your cloth...not our throats. You think Allinson and Cannan get any say? They spend all their time defending it, because they're told to. The public statement, "The civil service is not expanding" being just one example. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banker Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 See Jason wants to finish off retail with extra sales tax on top of VAT ! , only reason jersey introduced it is because they don’t have VAT to bring in money! Should add to inflation which he would then complain about https://www.three.fm/news/isle-of-man-news/has-government-considered-introducing-a-sales-tax/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’ll be too busy to reply this morning. Apparently Toytown bank has a big delivery of chocolate money due this morning and it’s all hands to the pump.

The fact is that whatever area of the economy is taxed, it remains TAXATION. It all serves to drive up inflation (presently). It matters not whether it's called a health tax or a retail tax; everybody will be obliged to pay it. By now, even you should be able to see this, and that Govt is trying to tax its way out of an unclosable and growing deficit whilst having no intention of taking the knife to its own upper echelons which are the real source of the problems. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is possible to want extra taxes for the NHS, without supporting a tax that will hit the poorest sections of society disproportionately hard, whilst adding a new layer of beaurocracy, and making local businesses less competitive compared to on-line. Edited March 25 by Declan oops added an unnecessary layer of complexity to the sentence myself 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
