QUOTE (Turin Machine @ Apr 14 2016, 12:05 AM)  I thought taxation was dealt with by the civil service? Civil Service don't make laws as far as I know. |

QUOTE (Andy Capp @ Apr 14 2016, 02:57 PM) Civil Service don't make laws as far as I know. Actually yes, civil servants do make laws - statutory instruments are laws that don't get voted on by parliament - around 300 statutory instruments each year currently, though it was much less formerly. For example, EU Council Directives might typically be rendered into UK law with a statutory instrument enabled by the 1972 European Communities Act, though that act also enables European regulations written by European civil servants to have effect in UK law directly. -------------------- Right an injustice - give Simon Kirby his allotment back!
