[jase]

im pleased.. at least this way no scumbags can avoid it. like they do when they just put road tax or something up and they dont pay.

 

[Mike]

no VAT increase on fuel.

Not quite:

There will not be any new increases in duties on alcohol, tobacco or fuel after the rises announced by the previous Labour government in the March Budget.

 

[Arran]

They put everything up everntually. At least the majorty of hard working folk get something in return this time, an extra grand tax free is great!

 

[Graeme GTR]

dont we pay VAT on fuel anyway?

 

[Roy]

dont we pay VAT on fuel anyway?

yes mate
but normally twice.increase+vat

 

[Graeme GTR]

so fuel will go up again then? Even if fuel duty tax doesnt go up?

 

[Roy]

yep.......

 

[Mike]

I'm sure that it is illegal to pay tax on tax....effectively you are doing just that with VAT on Fuel - it is VAT on Duty.

I'm gonna sue

if you think how many times you get taxed from when you get paid its frieghtening
tax on tax on tax:jumpon:

Plans for fuel to go up were always there though. They could have raised it even more. My locals are around 114p, wouldn't expect them to go past 120 which isn't too bad.

 

[Graeme GTR]

isnt that bad? when it goes below 80p ill be happy again. Amazed they even took there masks off when they made the budget announcement.
