Option 2 would be completely pointless and make matters a lot worse. Depends how he spins it “coronavirus has cost the U.K. a lot and we need to pull together as a country and work hard to pay it off” or “this government is facing its greatest challenge with coronavirus and exiting the EU and we’re going to be bold and kick start the economy by reducing XYZ...” Maybe they’ll finally scrap Income Tax bit of trivia for you but it was introduced as a temporary statute in 1799 to recoup the money spent on the Napoleonic Wars... sure we’ve paid that off by now. The statute gets renewed every year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
