Air tax hike 'would hit poorest'

Raising air travel taxes would only hit poorer people, said ministers as MPs accused them of failing to stop transport that fuels global warming.


Am i missing something here? we're destroying the fucking planet day by day, and instead of taxing the f** out of the travel thats causing it (hands up i'm guilty as well), we worry that poor people may not be able to afford to fly , well here cometh the lesson

If you are poor then by definition you can not afford to fuckin fly, end of!
