DOES this Government know how silly they look what will all these u-turns – from hot pasties to static caravans and now charities.

If each of these things was subject to more taxation, each would contribute to the revenue to the tune of £40m, so that’s £120m for all three!

Well, they could make up this revenue by not paying Brussels the £40m plus for three days that we send to the European Union for three days. Problem solved.
