This is what happens when you've had a socialist government for too long, people start thinking that ideas like this are acceptable. Instead of making HMRC more powerful the current Conservatives would do better to make the tax system far more streamlined.Comment

It probably won't happen, but thats not the point, it's the fact they think its OK to talk about it as a possibility that pisses me off. If you've ever had to deal with the UK tax authorities, especially the ones that collect VAT, then you'll know one of their favourite phrases is that it never was YOUR money it was always theirs.
If they want a cost saving merge National Insurance and Income Tax and just collect it once, instead of TWICE.
There will never be a civil war in the UK, or if there is it'll be fought with spoons, because anything vaguely pointy or shooty is illegal here.
This is the country where you need a license for a telly, and it was illegal to sell milk in shops not that long ago.Comment

Indeed, only trouble with that is, the sheeple would wake up and realise the basic rate of income tax in the UK is actually 31% not 20% as the government would like them to believe.Comment

Exactly. The tax man can come up with crazy schemes all day long, to keep people employed thinking up crazy schemes. Getting it past the electorate is another matter.
As for the saving of 500 million to employers, it'll add 1 billion to the cost of tax collection.Comment
