Look at how extreme many think Jeremy Corbyn's economic policies are. Those wouldn't raise an eyebrow in Scandinavia.
The government want to lower taxation to less than 36.5% of GDP, currently at about 39%. In Sweden that number is 45.8%, 49% in Denmark, 43.6% in Norway.
We don't tolerate taxation above about 40% of GDP in the UK. The idea of paying 45% or 49% is anathema.

European harmony at work. |
The EU has its head in the sand when it comes to problems, even when it admits to a problem it's never the EU at fault.
Like when someone is shot in the head and the autopsy report says (admits) they were shot in the head but then then says they didn't die from the gun shot wound , it was the blood loss that killed them. Yet if they hadn't been shot in the head they wouldn't of died, it's he same with the EU.
Ok if that doesnt make sense..... I KNEW WHAT I MEANT!!!! Lol
