Default Car Tax........

I got my reminder notice through for my car tax. For various reasons I was late in renewing. Rather than the price shown on the renewal, it had gone up by around £10.00

It would have seemed much fairer to have stuck the increase on during the next run. Seems a bit sneaky to charge you one price up to the 31st, and another from the 1st. At least then people would have had notice of it going up.

That's not a good situation. It seems at the minute we are destined to be severely raped for a good while yet. The economy was in trouble but my belief is we will see cuts, rises and more taxes which are possibly not needed, but an easy way for the government to dupe us into giving more.

The big problem the "Con-Dem" government are facing is almost everyone you speak with is moaning. They are not only targeting the poor, but their core voters as well.
