i would suggest as food and clothing and prescriptions are a must for people reduce the vat to nil on those items and raise the vat back to 12 5 % on everything else people and tourists would spend more money on food and clothing also it would boost the restaurant business if there was no vat on these items this system works very well in several states in the u s also it eliminates price gouging in all grocery stores also the grocery stores would see a much quicker turn over on there shelves and a lot less waste on items not being bought because of over pricing

If people disagree with manufacturing having protection to keep people employed i hope they also demand government get rid of all the other protection out there, like having to pay a silly % to real estate agents, having to get simple Government documents notarized, having to print adverts in the newspapers etc etc.
