Apologies if being discussed elsewhere

It could be a 2% levy on online sales, which would raise £2bn a year, or a charge on deliveries, as part of a campaign to cut congestion and emissions.

Personally I doubt it will save the High Street. It will just be another tax that gets used for whatever.
The High Street will simply shrink and shrink

It not going to help the high street and it’s fk all to do with cutting congestion or emissions. If we all buy on line instead of driving into town, and the goods have already been driven into town.......well, it’s easy to work that one out.

This is purely and simply to raise more tax which will now be ‘needed’ because of the COVID unemployed.

Sunak beginning to show his true colours?
