Abolish the Victim Support surcharge.

The idea

As per the title, I would like to see the Victim Support surcharge abolished.

Why is it important?

I would like to see the surcharge abolished as it fines guilty people regardless of whether there is a perceived victim in their case or not.

Punishment in this country should be proportionate to the crime/offence committed, levying a flat-rate surcharge, however small or insignificant it might appear to its instigators, is not proportionate.

In short it is unfair and should be abolished.
