Winston Churchill & road tax - Petel
Not wishing to start another " rights and wrongs of road tax " debate ( there is already one running ) would just like to ask,

Can anyone please confirm the year ( when Winston Churchill was Chancellor of the Exchequer ) that they allowed the money collected as Road Fund Licence, to be hived off into general taxation?
Thank you.

Somebody, possibly Mark/NoFM2R, researched this and provided a concise an reasonably definitive post on the subject. I cannot find the thread using forum search (and it may be in the "old" backroom archive), can one of the mods might remember it?

Can't remember it - just before my time here.

However, is this the one?
