WE USED to joke that “they’ll tax the air we breathe next”.
Seeing how the new popular cause is “air pollution”, a phrase now commonly used by anyone with a green agenda to promote, you can be sure that those at national and local level who are constantly dreaming up new ways to extract ever more tax from us will in future use this environmental issue as their reason.
Us small pebbles will soon have no plasma left to be extracted.
