One for the Brits - Stealth Tax!
Sorry to the non-brits first!
Our government is currently debating bringing in a tax per horse of £10.50 under the guise of controlling infectious diseases in animals. This tax will apply to ALL horse owners and is per animal.
I have put a link on my page and hopefully I have managed to attach a link to this discussion!
Please get this round the horse riding community in the UK, we can only stop this unnecessary extra cost by registering our disgust with the government, there is an electronic petition if you follow the link.
Sorry again to the non-UK members and Thanks everybody.
