Default

there are loads of anomalies in these systems, that must end up being more costly because of the effort required in administering them. The same thing applies in things like prescription charges. The only people that pay prescription charges are those that fund everyone else to get it for free, so why not just raise that tax element a little bit more and make it free for everyone. An entire level of administration gone in a single swipe.

Similarly tax credits. Make sure that everyone has a basic level of subsistence by raising taxes slightly, and remove another over complicated and ultimately unnecessary system.
