    This tax on “fast fashion” is such a load of nonsense. 1p per garment won’t achieve anything. That won’t stop them though. It’s only a matter of time before they’ll be taxing us £10 or £20 a garment - and who gets to decide how many clothes we’re allowed to buy anyway?https://twitter.com/SkyNews/status/1140940500645613568 …

    The group recommended several measures in a report, including charging fashion producers 1p per garment to raise £35m for better clothing collection and recycling http://po.st/SuFxGP

        Hi Julia, my understanding is that the EAC proposal is to fund more recycling for clothes, rather than as a financial deterrent to consumers. I think it would be worth exploring if the 1p tradeoff meant it was easier for people to recycle their old clothes.

        Your understanding is correct. But it won’t make any real difference to recycling levels or how much fast fashion people buy.

        If it means more availability of clothes recycling programmes in places where people shop, the greater convenience of simply trading in old clothes next time you go shopping might encourage people to recycle more :)

        Look - This is easy to sort. We’re all given the same suit every 10 years - we all get the same haircut and we all have the same opinions. Our economy will be through the roof in 40 years, so much so that we can build a consumer economy for a new middle class.

        Julia looks at something and then thinks how she can twist it to rile up her followers. She's a provocateur. I'm sure she knows half of what she says is bollocks, but it gets her attention.

        Don't worry, the delightful Caroline Lucas will happily decide how many items of clothing you are permitted to own. That's if she can take a break from scolding you for having non approved foodstuffs (meat) in your fridge...

        Quite right. Next there will be taxes on income and all sorts, paying for mad things such as police, roads and an NHS. Back to feudal lordships!

        Yep! Well said Julia. The thing to tax is shoes from the third pair onwards. £500 per pair. Nobody needs that many shoes!

        Maybe for people with more money than sense, I had unfortunate experience whilst in London last year when my kids wanted to look around Selfridges, well, I have never felt so out of place in my life, t shirts £300, hoodies £900, just disgusting. No place for a commoner like me.

        Taxing things is an easier way to 'take action' than doing what's required for a range of things from violent crime, through pollution to obesity. Educating people and changing their attitudes takes longer than a single parliament so politicians don't want to look at it.
