20% VAT is too much.

Anyone who says that they accept it has no idea what low income means.

Its disgusting.

The idea that 20% VAT hits all equally is an illusion.

For those who spend 100% of their income on essentials it raises the poverty bar that little bit more, so that they have to makke unreasonable basic survival choices on a dily basis.

For those who have a load left over to save or to spend on luxuries, VAT means a choice between a porsche or a BMW Z3.



20% VAT is a deeply unfair tax and I can't wait for Clegg to reap his just desserts in 2015.


I suppose they'll call poor people sinking under the poverty bar somthing unhuman like "Colateral Damage" ...
