Horse Tax!?

Apparently the latest government wheeze is looking to charge us all in excess on £100 per year for each horse or pony we own - the initial cost was to be around £10 per horse. In order to make any impact whatsoever, at least 30,000 signatures need to be placed on the No 10 petition.

Please sign up and get all your friends to do the same.

this was in last weeks Hand H, and have signed the petition. i cant imagine this will be so, if it does it will be a massive equine welfare problem, as if there isn't enough problems already concerning welfare!! paying £10 goes against the grain anyway as i TOTALLY disagree with the principal of the thing, being as this useless government created the last foot and mouth outbreak!!!!
 
Don't pin your hopes on 30,000 signatures on a petition making any difference WP! 300,000 or 3,000,000 won't make a difference if this government is determined to try new and creative ways to balance their books.
 
I am going to make a stand on this , i will NOT be paying a horse tax, what will they do take my horses away from me? I would'nt be able to pay for them with that on top anyway, so they would have to go.

What i would like to know is, how are they going to track us down, would it be something to do with the passport? if so what about the people who have not got them? I just cannot see this working or being fair.

Have already signed the No 10 petition!
