A Tax on Coeliacs – 2

It’s funny, but all the budget forums I’ve read so far have got coeliacs in them moaning about the tax on cider.  There are three in this article in the Guardian for a start.

If nothing else, Darling has at least got coeliacs talking about their condition on the Internet. 

As they make up one percent of the population, could they have an effect on the election?  Probably not, but it does show how stupid Darling is.  Surely, he needed to bring in a flat tax rate for drinks like cider, so that cheap crap was taxed heavily and the good expensive stuff wasn’t.

But then in most cases you have to be stupid to be a politician!
