“The people are hungry: It is because those in authority eat up too much in taxes.”
Lao Tzu
“Now, it’s not that you’re not apologising; like everyone else I have long accepted that you’re pathologically incapable of accepting responsibility for these things. It’s that you’re carrying on, wilfully worsening our situation, wantonly spending what little we have left.”
Daniel Hannan
“A Labour government would also bring about a generational change in tax collection, shifting taxation from income to environmental issues. In this way, people who were enterprising and were successful because of their hard work would not end up being penalised by paying more tax.”
Joseph Muscat
“Government is taxing the country dry”
“A Labour government would ensure that it was the well off who carried the heaviest burdens and now those with a small income. The people would understand the need for sacrifices when they could see that taxes were raised fairly and spent wisely.”
“A future Labour government would destroy the tax of corruption, in all its levels,”
“A Labour government would be a governemnt which would put the country’s not the party’s interest first.”
