TPA says No to an EU tax

TPA Campaign Director Emma Boon was invited to Brussels this week to join an MEP and taxpayer groups from across Europe to attack an attempt to establish an EU-wide system of taxation. During a public hearing at the European Parliament Emma joined a panel to launch a new European Citizens Initiative (ECI) against EU Taxation. ECIs allow citizens to stop the European commission proposing a new law if a minimum of one million European citizens from at least seven EU countries sign an initiative. The "No EU tax" initiative will begin collecting signatures later this year. Emma (pictured) told the Belgian public news service why the TPA was against a planned EU tax.
