""In the UK the new Austerity measures mean 20% VAT.""
I just love the way that the naysayers use the emotive "twenty percent", when they are actually talking about "plus two and one half percent".
In case they haven't noticed, we've been paying seventeen and one half percent for a long time past.
Now we pay 25p extra on a ten pounds purchase.
Truly devastating?.......Well no! Not really!.....Not even for us low earners.
