Unicorn Tax

I was waiting for someone to say it! That's why electric cars aren't exempt from road tax. How can you be exempt from something that doesn't exist?

Beanie is probably worth more.

Bet you live in Southampton!!!!

Nope, about 1 mile from Fratton Park. However, I have not lived here long enough to develop an undying love for a team so dreadful that you to have been born here to appreciate.

I used to commute to St Mary's Hospital along Goldsmith Avenue and then cut through Specks Lane adjacent to the ground.

It could be a nightmare riding a recumbent trike through a busy crowd of supporters as the whole area could be full of (often drunk) fans

here we go again. "vehicle excise duty" is a tax levied on certain classes of vehicles for being allowed to use the road ergo it is a "road tax". To argue the specious point that it had its name changed in the 1832 Great Reform Act is losing the argument before you've started.

Let's try "how much extra tax should a cyclist pay for leaving his car at home?" "how much should my 4 year old daughter pay for her bike with stabilisers". "how much more tax than an electric car should a bike pay". "average bike does 100 miles a year and weighs 15kg" (probably far less as most langhuish unloved in sheds), "average car does 10000 miles and weighs 1500kg, so would 1/10,000 of the car tax be about fair?" and so on.

Oh, dull dull dull. If anyone tells me I don't pay road tax I cheerfully agree and tell them I don't pay for sex either

and guess what, Amazon won't pay any tax on them.

.... Surely you pay an imaginary tax on an imaginary animal?

 

[Andy_R]

If it's Amazon they avoid paying any sort of tax, imaginary or real

Exactly what I thought after following that link in the second post.
