Anyone got any info on this? ( new proposal fro those fortunate enough to have a nice view to be taxed for it
I think it gets factored into the computer program that works out your ctax. Sounds insane as what constitutes a 'nice view' is somewhat subjective isn't it.
.......sounds to me like it's a 'living in the countryside' tax though.

or just another middle-class tax.
Well looking at an electoral map of the UK, the cities are Red, the countryside is Blue.
If you're going to define a field as a 'nice view', which you are not going to get in a ( Labour voting ) city it basically looks like political tax.

Surely properties with a better view, command a higher price, as a result more Stamp Duty is paid, and they are in a higher council tax band already...
So yet more double taxation from the commie party....
Got it in one
"Well Mr Labour Voter, the choice is we either cut your benefits and try and get you to work, or we tax some rich bastards who live in big houses with nice views."

Except it will equally apply to some poor sodding local who earns £12k a year and lives in a small damp cottage but is consdiered rich because they have a view of a moor.

That's the whole point though, it will affect these kind of people, but as long as it appeals to Labour's "core vote" in the inner cities why should they care? It makes me furious the way this country is going, thanks to the divide and rule policies of the government.
