Joe67 239 Posted January 25, 2014 Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 its not about the yes vote f***ing joke! With the 2015 general election fast approaching, the daily bale has been investigating claims that a labour party government would introduce a radical new ‘Pet tax’ to British households. If you think living under the cuts made by the conservative/liberal government is bad then think again. Socialist and anti-Britain advocator, Ed Milliband wants to tax you for owning a pet. In a new piece of legislation drawn up by Ed balls who hopes to replace George osborne in 2015, he has suggested that dog owners should be made to pay £50 a month directly to the labour government. If you own a cat then you would be made to pay £40 a month. All animals smaller than a cat being kept in British households will be subject to a £35 a month tax. In a statement supposedly released from Ed Milibands office, the move to tax British people for owning pets is described as ‘much needed’. Last week the labour party also announced new plans to create a series of rival banks to face ‘the big four’ in more crazy plans to fix the economy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Malt 379 Posted January 25, 2014 Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 Wouldn't believe a word of it.. The cost of hiring enough customs officers to enforce that would far outweigh the money it would bring in.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
walshie 2,804 Posted January 25, 2014 Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 It's obviously not true is it? If it was, i think the proper newspapers might have kicked up a bit of a stink about it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Huan72 687 Posted January 25, 2014 Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 To do that would be political suicide, it would hit all classes, can you imagine taxing an older person who's only life companion is their devoted jack, yorkie or westie, it just wouldn't happen......................I hope Quote Link to post Share on other sites
