Tax on Aviation Fuel

At present about £8-9billion pounds is raised by Airline Passenger Duty!

I’m all for tax on aviation fuel, but only if the Airline Passenger Duty is removed. That would make it fair and it would not put up the costs greatly at all.

It'll never happen as the Americans (Yet Again!) will never agree.

Hence the silly Airline Passenger Tax! Why not have one on trains too! Or you pay a charge every time you get into your car!
