This is a normal post I went for 20%
if you don't want something - then don't buy it - it sounds daft but many things are too cheap at the moment. Products that are overpriced anyway will be reduced in price to make up for the vat increase

This is a normal post Also with VAT
I believe that the bare essentials, like food and baby type items are VAT free and therefore a raise in VAT only affects the "luxury" items (and ahem, businesses).

This is a normal post VAT applies to most business costs
So when VAT goes up, so does your food. Even though its VAT-exempt.

Besides which, Georgy Boy has just raised VAT to 20%

This is a normal post I suspected as much
hence the brackets... but still less of an impact hopefully than other cutbacks. For example the 15% to 17.5% affected me and my business marginally at best..
