Planning Gain Tax; New Stealth tax to be introduced within three years on land sold by home owners to developers based on the difference between the value of the land itself, and the value of the land with planning permission.


Garden Debris Tax; A charge of £50 per year from your coucil for removing the lawn cuttings and other stuff that goes in the wheely bin for recycling via the councils composting scheme.
