BBC NEWS Politics ‘Flat tax’ urged by Tory Osborne
Ever since I read the article on Flat Tax in Andy’s Economist way back in spring, the story seems to be coming up more and more often. There’s the BBC article linked to above, last week I heard that Germany’s CDU (Conservative party, likely to replace Schroeder’s SPD in a couple of weeks) is considering a flat tax scheme (I don’t know how seriously) and recently there was the news that the Treasury had censored their own report on flat tax to de-emphasise the benefits and exaggerate the drawbacks. It’s definetly a topic that won’t go away.
