On the face of it, and I will wait to see the reality before celebrating (politicians never are entirely truthful), there may be some cause for celebration wrt one of Nanny's stealth taxes being abolished.
Central government will, apparently, stop local councils fining people for petty infringements of bin rules.
Ministers will limit local authorities' power to impose "immoral" charges and fines for minor mistakes to do with recycling and rubbish.
Only the most severe cases of fly-tipping will be subject to penalties.
However, as stated, I will only believe it when I see it. Councils cannot resist finding new ways to tax their long suffering taxpayers, remove this stealth tax and they will find another way to rob us.
Councils have become the enemy of the people!

ReplyDeleteThis is just PR Ken. The government said it with a 'wink' and the councils will carry on as before.
ReplyDeleteCouncil jobsworths are the real rubbish and we have to pay the bastards wages. From the EU to the government (sorry local EU talking shop) to the local council they are all our enemies. I would not piss on any of them if they were on fire and I had just had 8 pints (sorry 16 EU permitted units) and the gents was closed.
ReplyDeleteI fear your celebration will be some time coming. As long as Common Purpose infests all aspects of the countries infrastructure nothing will change.
ReplyDeleteThey are just carrying out their "leading beyond authority" training.
