European Income tax?

BRUSSELS politicians have drawn up proposals to create a European income tax which would leave Britons shelling out £510 a year to the superstate.

The rumbling row over the size of Britain’s rebate from Europe resurfaced as an influential committee of MEPs received recommendations for sweeping reforms to the Union’s current funding system.

The Committee On Budgets is facing calls to scale back the current system in favour of a form of direct taxation when Britain’s rebate is re-negotiated in 2008.

Oh Brilliant. We already shell out billions of pounds for an organisation we don’t want to be in as well as having to put up with stupid laws that they shove on us. We also have to be happy with the fact that they have had their own accounts rejected for the last 12 years and now they want to waste more of our money. When will it end?

If they do manage to get a European income tax I will refuse to pay it. Even if it means jail time.
