Trying to raise some more tax and fall in line with EC Directives, George Osborne slapped a tax on hot food. Strangely he wanted to do this more than he wanted to stop spending our money, so he wouldn't need so much tax.
So Greggs have gone nuts as they sell hot sausage rolls and pasties. How are you supposed to run a business in this country when you have no idea when drastic new rules will be introduced that undermine you (usually from the EU)?
Here's the thing Greggs. I come in the shop and ask for a VAT free cold sausage roll, recently reduced in price by 4p. Thank you very much. I see you also offer a warming service for 5p including VAT at 20%. Thanks very much I'll go with that and George Osborne can have his 1p pound of flesh.
Why do the Tories think they are in a competition to be more stupid than Tony Blair/Gordon Brown?
