    June 10th for us Canadians, well that was in 2015 and it’s been creeping later every year so I am sure 2016 will be no different.

    When it’s reached December 31st, will they fill in the white bits on your flag? As Ayn Rand said, the difference between communism and socialism is essentially the same as between murder and suicide. 🙂

    Do you know that in Australia Tax Freedom day was April 12th this year? We are both living in the wrong country!
    However the discrepancy is so great I think they must calculate it differently.

    Good on ’em. Tax Freedom Day in a libertarian country would be about January 20th. And only that late because of the New Year holidays!

Tom is a retired international lawyer. He was a partner in a City of London law firm and spent almost twenty years abroad serving clients from all over the world.

Returning to London on retirement in 2011, he was dismayed to discover how much liberty had been lost in the UK while he was away.

He’s a classical liberal (libertarian, if you must) who, like his illustrious namesake, considers that

“…government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one.”
