2.5 % less on Monday The economy saved in one quick 2.5% discount or maybe not

[teamHOLDENracing]

Being pedantic, your saving is actually only 2.13%

Essential piece of racing equipment £100 + VAT

Cost today at 17.5% VAT = £117.50

On Monday at 15% VAT = £115.00

Saving: £2.50, or 2.13% of £117.50


Our democratically elected government has even overstated the saving by a factor of 15%....

and am I right in thinking that he managed to slip somthing in along the lines that fuel duty would go up to compensate for this? as the price of it has come down anyway?

i don't think i have been so well off for a long time.

2.5% off vat, Mortgage £250pcm cheaper than last month, petrol coming back down to 2000 levels.

I might just start spending, hang on, if only I knew I was going to have a job this time next year.

i bet for the first time both tory and labour are hoping the lib dems are going to win the next election. Now that would fk up the country.

nail - head I think.. you could have slashed vat to 0% imho and it would make no difference, people aint spending as they are worried about jobs.. it needed something to stimulate business confidence !! did darling not notice that most things in the highstreet already have 20-25% discounts and there was even a car broker offering bogof deals oh sorry no his Ivory tower is nowhere near the highstreet, fking champagne socialists
