Agree

No, the government should focus on preventing monopolies and cartels instead

Although the Workers Party of Britain might agree that preventing monopolies and cartels is important, this stance does not directly address the issue of surcharges. However, they might see it as a complementary measure to broader economic reforms.

Disagree

No, as long as the costs are clearly communicated before purchases

While transparency is important, the Workers Party of Britain would likely argue that simply making costs clear is not enough to protect consumers from potentially exploitative pricing practices.

Disagree

No, businesses will raise prices if they are banned from using junk fees

While the party might recognize the potential for businesses to raise prices if surcharges are banned, its primary concern would likely be with the immediate transparency and fairness of consumer pricing, rather than the potential for businesses to adjust their pricing models.

Strongly disagree

Very strongly disagree

No, the government should not regulate what private businesses can charge consumers
