GREEN TAX CON COSTS YOU A FORTUNE

FAMILIES are being ripped off by an average of £783 a year through Gordon Brown’s bogus “green" taxes, it emerged yesterday.

Hard-pressed households are being forced to pay far more than necessary in motoring taxes and council tax bills as well as a raft of other measures allegedly imposed to cover the cost of pollution.

In total, taxpayers had to hand over £19.6billion too much in so-called green taxes last year – and lower-income households are being hit hardest, said a report.

Last night the Prime Minister and Chancellor Alistair Darling were accused of exploiting environmental concerns to justify a punishing new round of stealth taxes which critics branded “unfair and dishonest.”

Tory MP Philip Davies said: “More and more people are realising that green taxes have nothing to do with being green. They’re just an excuse to tax us more.

  1. you know you spend a lot of time talking about green shift. Interestingly enough, and I can't say given your blind bias, I haven't barely one word about the people dead from the Listeria outbreak.

    Shouldn't be more concerned with things that cause our elderly loved ones to die?

    My wife and I have discussed having a child, but with a government who cares more for tax cuts then safety, it's a scary proposition...
