I only know we are going to be in for a rough ride when someone has a serious look at the books being cooked by that so called financial guru Brown , his way of making money is to rip our will to live or work by taxing us for even breathing then throwing it to help Countries abroad, he wants to, like Tony Blair also , concentrate on our needs never mind trying to put the world to rights

I don't think anyone knows where the tax goes in the U.K. but I'm going to have a bit of a guess here. The Prime Minister don't do too badly. From what I can remember, I don't think any of it goes into the NHS or education. Hope this helps.

Answer 5

I just deduct 17.5% off everything I buy plus I don't pay tax on my earnings as I claim sick (I was knocked off a fork lift truck at work)
I'm not funding the dole scrounging terrorists who drink late at night and scratch my BMW 3 series when they stumble past on their way to illegal drug raves. Then they meet a girl and get her pregnant so thats more of my tax money gone. I'm not funding these people's kestrel super habit!
