'George Osborne could face an embarrassing defeat over the 'tampon tax' that MPs have branded sexist and wrong. At least 11 Tory MPs have joined a Labour bid - backed by a 250,000-strong petition - to wipe out the controversial 5% VAT rate on the 'luxury' goods. Whitehall officials insist the rules are locked down by the EU and can't be easily changed. But tomorrow dozens of Labour MPs, led by a group including shadow chancellor John McDonnell , will try to amend the Budget to ditch the charge.' http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/tampon-tax-rebellion-tories-face-6702080#rlabs=19%20rt$category%20p$8 |
