Default Visitors booking stays in Wales could face a Tourism Tax

This is crazy

What will it be £5 a day?



[A public consultation will consider if overnight
visitors should pay a levy on top
of their holiday costs.
The document reveals, if introduced,
the tax would be applied to campers
as well as people from Wales holidaying
within the nation.

The Welsh government said the tax would
support "sustainable tourism".


Some in the tourism industry fear it would
put off visitors already cutting back due
to higher bills and a charge could hit
businesses struggling with rising bills.

Welsh Conservatives said
the plan could put livelihoods at risk.]

This level of stupidity I didn't think would happen until 2025.

But at least we've got until 2033 before the Oxygen Tax comes out.

I know someone from and living in North Wales, they HATE the English buying up holiday homes, yet the huge irony she works for a firm (who are her friends and English) who maintain all the holiday homes.

ETA - She's a bit of misery tbf, so well within her character. We had many of argument over it.
