    Yes the same way they pay their income taxes and pay for their rubbish to be collected.:rolleyes:

    Big difference between whether or not there is a legal obligation for them to pay and whether or not a large percentage of them will pay.

    It's all a numbers game....if the cost of collecting money is greater than the amount you stand to gain....you don't bother.

    Hmmmm,
    It kinda makes you laugh when you think about "bashing threads" :)

    That if speak your opinion, or in this case state a true fact (lets be honest people the VAAAAST majority of travellers wont be paying it) Its automatically seen as a "bashing thread" - That you are just being racist or prejudice.

    Yes calling you a big nasty racist really means SHUT UP you are bringing up inconvenient facts.

    I'll always be against those who leech off our state. Call me whatever you want.

    If people refuse to pay though, wont revenue have power to take it from peoples welfare payments ?

    Feelings are very strong twords these people & things will get heated.

    There's very good reason for this.

    Thread'll get locked in no time flat though.

    The vast majority of the travelling community will not be paying the LPT. Whether they are liable is neither here nor there. They won't be paying it.

    End of story.

    What do you mean the vast majority won't be paying?:mad:


    I would say it's a pretty safe bet none of them will pay.:p

    No worries, our USC will keep them in pocket money for a few years to come.

    Sure, aren't they worth it?

    If they own a property there is no reason they shouldnt pay it.
