Gordon's Tax Grab

According to the Office of National Statistics (and as reported in today's Daily Mail) we have each donated £120,000 towards Gordon Brown's tax grab in the past 10 years.

"What!" you might say.

Well, actually if it was on £120,000 then GF would be delighted. He suspects, however, that he has donated well over double that amount... through

  • income tax
  • national insurance
  • council tax
  • fuel duty
  • Road vehicle license
  • VAT on fuel
  • VAT on each of the cubs' weddings
  • Stamp duty on the purchase of Fox Towers

  • VAT on GF's car
  • VAT on SV's car
  • VAT on electricity
  • VAT on gas
  • VAT on the phone bills
  • VAT on restaurant meals

  • Television tax (BBC license fee)
  • Theft from GF's pension fund
  • Tax on flights
Remember, all this goes to Gordon... and he is likely to be our next Prime Minister (and his Pension is guaranteed, and exempt from the ravages of his tax grab)
