Do you think the government should tax private school fees?

    They won’t raise any money from this anyway, the new law will mean these schools will now be able to claim vat back on purchases which they couldn’t before. So most of what is charged to the parents will be offset by the schools vat reclaim.

    So this is just an excuse for the schools to bump the prices (old price plus vat) while reaping a little extra in vat reclaim and a totally insignificant extra tax goes to the gov.

    I’m all for taxing the richest, but this shit is dumb mediabate
