Rachel Reeves to raise windfall tax on low-carbon electricity generators Chancellor aims to curb households’ rising bills as she consults on reforms to weaken link between gas and electricity prices

If Reeves is so desperate to raise taxes why doesn't she increase the rate on capital gains tax to match the income tax rates and put VAT on the Financial Services sector. Only the wealthy would be affected.

Isle of Wight ferries – breakdowns, cancellations, rocketing prices, THREE times the cost of the Oban to Mull crossing and unfair taxation compared to Scotland The Isle of Wight’s two ferry services, Red Jet and Wightlink, have a long history breakdowns, of mass cancellations and rocketing prices in an effort to keep paying shareholder dividends and…

Ever the English complain about the cost of Scottish Ferries.
