APD

Diplome

It was in the press in the last few days. APD to rise (double ?? ) to fund Lib-Dem pledge to raise income tax threshold to £10,000.
For the few who will pay no tax, many more will not be able to travel by air on holiday and hence many in the aviation industry will lose their jobs.
You can of course travel by AMS,CDG, FRA etc and pay less tax but that doesn't help those employed in the aviation industry in the UK. i.e. those trying to keep their airline in business not destroy it.
