No special and consumption taxes in Britain...? VAT? Energy? Alcohol, tobacco, luxury? Copy tax? Social insurance, mandatory health care? And whatever exotic local habits you have in Britain additionally?
In Germany we have currently over 60 taxes that every citizen is subject to - additional to income taxes (62, to be precise). I cannot imagine there is any democratic state having substantially less. Sucking blood, eh, I mean money is the only way democratic regimes can exist. Beside printing money and devaluing it and raising debt limits, all of which the taxed slaves also must pay for, with expropriation.
