The Adam Smith Institute reminds us that today is Tax Freedom Day: from 1st January until 29th May Britons were working for the State, to pay their taxes. At 149 days this is 3 days longer than last year.
One of the reasons for this is that since the Coalition came to power the State has increased in size by 3%.
It takes a special kind of political incompetence to receive opprobrium for making cuts while in fact raising spending.
