Ah I see re chippies. I have another anomaly...I sometimes buy a hot sausage roll, dem lenghty ones, very good...in Tesco. They have a little hot cabinet a little inside the door on the right as you go in. Now how is this going to work?
I put it in the basket with all of the other items. When it gets to the till, it is sometimes still hot, or if I have more items to get, it can be cool or even cold...so how about that one. is the girl on the till going to stick a thermometer in it to see if its still hot!!?
Is the vat going to be applied at the till on one item and not on the others..or will Tesco give up selling them due to exasperated complications beyond the norm.
According to Sky News the Leeds Platform one the Prime Minister mentioned, where he bought his last pastie, has closed down in the past week...a victim of the recession no doubt.
The amount of stick HMG got for this one and the puny amount of money it raises, well they might as well have left it alone. The frontbench dont seem to see the imbalance..working class food loved by builders etc gets vat on it because its hot, and the frontbench millionaires all got a huge cut in their income tax bill. Even on Newsnight last night people are still kicking the Budget.
