Not much fuss from me - however along with CAP it's one of those massively bloated pieces of committee lead regulations with registration and annual charges as well as business costs - irrespective of the uptake of the services rhat must be provisioned for.

A good friend runs a decent office supplies company. Selling B2B, to firms with waste management. He has never, once, had a customer request he dispose of/recycle electricals he's supplied.

Yet he has a couple of grand membership fee every year, as well as paperwork to complete to show no one has wanted it done.

It's an indicator of some of the small, but additive drags on SMEs and the subsequent effects more widely.
But do you really think we wouldn't have something similar had we stayed out of the EU completely?

If Yes - then why did we need to pay the EU to do it for us
If No - then we'd have saved a lot of faff and money

  • Apply stimulus reductions in Corp Tax and VAT.
I believe the UK gov does have room already. It then begs the question of why the tories don't just drop VAT by 5%?

How unlike an aged Brexiteer to get befuddled between two completely different things.

Don't worry, nurse will be round soon with lunch, and if you're lucky she might turn the television over for you rofl
