Gonna last forever... though compared to the rest of europe its actualy quite a low rate. And yep.. its on everything tats currently taxed at 17.5%
And if you order a new car now.. makes no diff! You pay the rate of VAT at the point its registered... so most likely next year! Was told this by a BM dealer last week... even if i paid in full now it wouldnt matter apparently (oh... and lets not forget.. it also goes on petrol ... another reason ive gone the company car route - too expensive to run my own)

I mean mate, people were saying this months ago. Therefore they would not pay the extra tax with cars being delivered within the next month.

No VAT at all on kids clothes and shoes etc - the same goes for most food also. The criteria used for food VAT rates are brilliant, eg:
Jaffa cakes = zero rate VAT Gingerbread men decorated with chocolate unless this amounts to no more than a couple of dots for eyes = Standard rate VAT and Bourbon and other biscuits where the chocolate or similar product forms a sandwich layer between two biscuit halves and is not continued onto the outer surface = zero rate VAT Chocolate shortbread = standard rate VAT Bloody HMRC |

Hey, the department that had to come up with all those rules and regulations kept a number of job-worths collecting their pensions & other benefits (some were of course off with stress) for a good 6-12 months. The Government would have had to have given them all a handsome redundancy package otherwise. Think of all the money we've saved.
