    About time too. I wholeheartedly agree with it. Basic human need.

    However, there's fun to be had now.

    So have the government made a big blob in not doing this earlier? It was blood money after all.

    It's a luxury item and I don't see why they shouldn't pay tax on it.

    This thread will last long.

    About 30 days, maybe?

    It's just papering over the cracks.

    Does it come with strings attached?


    I can just see the whole thing expanding out of all proportion.

    I suspect that every 30 days this thread will become unreasonable, teary and angry. But we'll all have a cuddle a few days later.

    A tax imposed by the EU.

    They've been bleeding us dry for years.

    I'm surprised it made it through all the red tape, after all the subject can be toxic when people push it too far.

    Not able to use the origional subject of the joke ( it would be classed as racism now )
