This is some new EU ruling

the Labour MP Stella Creasy
[Stella Creasy summed up why
tampons are not 'luxury' items
during a discussion on the proposed
amendment to the Finance Bill on Tuesday.
The amendment would renegotiate the
five per cent tax applied to sanitary products.
Her joke-filled rant took aim at other
products that are not taxed,
such as Jaffa Cakes and razors,
while sanitary products are still
considered to be a ‘luxury item’.]
