Nanny's Salt Tax


 

It seems that, despite Covid, Nanny hasn't lost her desire to mess with other aspects of our lives.

Sources familiar with drafts of Nanny's upcoming National Food Strategy say it suggests a tax of 6% on high-salt content foods.

That could see the price of a McDonald’s Big Mac soar by 20p and push a bag of Quavers to 91p.

As ever this will of course not stop people eating these products. However, it will hurt the poorest sections of the community who will find the cost of their food bills going up!

Anti Sugar Fanatics To Ban Individual Choice


Aside from promoting this very ugly viewpoint that individuals should not be permitted to have a choice, the anti sugar fanatics are now calling fro sugar taxes on booze and premixed cocktails.

Here's why this proposal is bollocks:

1 Booze is already taxed.

2 Taxing it does not stop people drinking it.

3 People have the right to choose what they eat, drink, smoke and ingest.

4 The anti sugar fanatics have no right to tell others what they should/should not eat/drink!

Sugar Sugar


inews reports that the sugar tax on soft drinks has revolutionised the industry, with the average beverage now 28 per cent less sugary than before the tax was introduced, a new study has found.

Drinks makers have slashed the sugar content on many of their existing brands and introduced new, low-sugar alternatives.

However, it should be noted that the alternative non sugar sweeteners that have been added appear to trick the brain and body into thinking that it has ingested sugar.

The result?

The body produces fat, and the chances of diabetes remain the same as if you had ingested sugar!

Irn-Bru Sticks Two Fingers Up To Nanny



Nanny's sugar tax levy had forced Irn-Bru to mess with its recipe, much the the consternation of its loyal customers.

As such, the company has decided to stick two fingers upo to Nanny and produce a limited batch of its original recipe (containing sugar) from 1901.

Robin Barr, who unearthed the recipe, is quoted by STV:

"The 1901 recipe has aged beautifully over the last 118 years.

For a limited time, we'll be producing a premium 'old and unimproved' Irn-Bru 1901 just as it was enjoyed by our first fans.

This is Irn-Bru as you've never tasted it. It's a chance to enjoy a unique and authentic piece of Scottish history - but don't hang about, we don't think it will be around for long."

Nanny's Snack Tax


As per the Guardian:
"A snack tax of 20% on biscuits, cakes and sweets would have “a huge impact” on obesity levels in the UK and be more effective than the current levy on colas and other sugary drinks, say experts."
These "experts" do know that 20% VAT is already levied on snacks don't they?

Sugar Sugar!


It seems that Nanny's obsession with people's alleged increased sugar consumption is somewhat misplaced.

The above figures show that sugar consumption has, in fact, been declining over the years (long before the absurd and irrelevant sugar tax was imposed).

Now then, given that Nanny still tells us we are fat pigs she will have to find other things to blame...

Coming soon....

THE FAT TAX!

Tax All Food!

 
Nanny's Chief medical officer Prof Dame Sally Davies (who has called herself the nation's "chief Nanny"), is calling for taxes on unhealthy food high in sugar and salt.

She went on to say that her dream was to make fruit and vegetables cheaper for everyone from the proceeds.

Okay here's why this is bollocks:

1 Taxes on booze and food do not change behaviour for the better, people either ignore them or seek less expensive/less healthy alternatives.

2 Who decides what is "healthy/unhealthy"?

3 It is not Nanny's role to dictate to us what we may/may not eat.

4 Government's never use tax proceeds for the good, they are swallowed up by the ever increasing cost of Nanny's bureaucracy.

Nanny Invents New Sin To Tax



As we all know Nanny is short of cash, as such instead of cutting back on her expenditure she raises taxes.

One area that she enjoys taxing is that of sins; eg smoking, drinking, sugar etc etc. Unfortunately, because people are cutting down on smoking (thanks to Nanny's constant whining about it) Nanny's revenue stream from fags is dwindling.

Her solution?

Invent a new sin to tax.

Can you guess what that is children?

Yes, that's right, vaping!

Nanny intends to levy a tax on vaps, the product that people use to try to give up smoking!

You couldn't make this up if you tried could you?

Scottish Nanny's Half Baked Booze Pricing Plan



Commiserations to the good people of Scotland, who, from tomorrow, will have to endure Scottish Nanny's half baked minimum pricing of alcohol plan.


It won't work, and all that will happen is that people will cut down expenditure on other essentials. Additionally, if they cross the border into despised England they can buy it at English prices!

Smart cookies will set up booze delivery services into Scotland from England and undercut Scottish shops and Scottish Nanny's revenue raising dreams!

Nanny Wants To Tax Chocolate In Order To Get Empirical Data



It appears that taxing sugary drinks is not as effective as Nanny told us.

It is now "accepted fact" that taxing chocolate and other sweet foods would be a more effective anti-obesity strategy than the new “sugar tax” on fizzy drinks.

A study by Oxford and Cambridge Universities and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, predicts that adding 10 per cent to the price of confectionery, cakes and biscuits could lead to a 7 per cent drop in purchases.

The figures are similar to those for taxing sugar-sweetened drinks, where previous research suggests a 10 per cent price rise can reduce purchases by 6 per cent to 8 per cent.

However the latest study, published in BMJ Open, found that taxing sweet snacks could have an additional knock-on effect on the sale of other foods, leading to consumers cutting their buying of soft drinks, biscuits, cakes and savoury snacks as well.

All very fine and dandy, except the authors of the study then go on to say they don't have the empirical evidence and that the best way to get that is to levy the tax!

As Co-author Professor Susan Jebb, from the University of Oxford, said per the Telegraph:
"It's impossible to study the direct effects of a tax on snack food on consumer behaviour until such policies are introduced, but these estimates show the likely impact of changes in the price."
You couldn't make this up!

Nanny To Tax Coffee



Hot on the heels of last week's sugar tax, which Nanny claimed was to reduce childhood obesity, the anti sugar Gestapo are now setting their sites on coffee (how is that kid related?).

Caramel lattes and other coffees full of sugar, as well as milkshakes and squash, should be the next target of a government crackdown.

Tam Fry, chairman of the National Obesity Forum, blamed the “out of home” sector for dragging its feet as he took aim at drinks such as caramel lattes.

He is quoted by The Times:
“Lacing coffee with so much sugar is ridiculous.” 
Fry said these drinks should be sweetened artificially instead.

Two small, but significant points:

1 Kids tend not to gorge on coffee, hence Nanny' has lied to us that the sugar tax was aimed at kids.

2 It's not Fry's fucking business how much sugar people choose to add to their coffee!
