UKIP propose to combine income tax and National Insurance in to a single flat rate tax of 33%.

Would you agree if everyone in the UK paid 33% tax on their income? However, they’ll increase the tax free personal allowance to £9,000.

Everyone contributes. That’s including the rich b@stards who have their bank accounts in Switzerland and criminals who pay nothing anyway. They’ve all got to eat. They’ve all got to buy clothes…. so everyone, even the crooks who spend half their time working out how not to contribute at all, pays to run the country. If affects everyone exactly the same way. Even the unemployed, who still need to eat.

I’ve been told on numerous occasions that ‘that wouldn’t work here.’ What no one has ever satisfactorily explained, however, is this.

Why not?
