So then. A 5% "tourist tax".

A tax on when you go on holiday, a tax on business travel, a tax on small businesses that already pay income tax, national insurance on their incomes and/or the other related business taxes if they're above the threshold. A tax on big businesses, and on hospitality (pubs with rooms etc).

Growth at all costs eh?

We're in a taxation death spiral.
I am waiting for a tax on every toilet over one.

Why don't we do what other countries do and tax foreigners?
Make it more expensive for people who choose to come to Britain to spend their money. Lets squeeze them even more eh?

To be fair - we don't want poor people visiting. They're the "wrong sort".

Good thinking that man.

For places that are rammed like York perhaps? and maybe in peak season, where there's not a demand for more tourists.

That being said last time I went to York I was pretty baffled that there was a member of the council staff who stood next to a bollard all day lifting and lowering it which seemed like you don't need a human to be doing that manually...
