Windfall taxes are an established thing and absolutely make sense here.
So does this interference in the free market also mean if they ever make a loss then the government will bail them out ?
So, am I right that I will have to establish an outsourcing firm to funnel profits there?
More than half of the price of petrol goes to the government, how about cut taxes if you want to put money in the pockets of citizens?
How about they cut the difference out of their fuel duty n vat until the market stabilise?
I mean it makes sense, frankly it shouldn’t be legal for any of the energy companies to give out bonuses unless they’ve reduced the prices that quarter.
