If more people made food there would be less to pay in tax, makes sense I think

One issue people are taking with this, is that they just gave massive tax breaks to the wealthiest, and then did this.

Greggs is awful, their speciality is something known as the cat-**** pasty. The rest of it is burnt dry and tasteless

Greggs has a peculiar smell when you walk past... well, my local one does. It's not a smell that would make me want to buy anything in there.

Percy Ingle's Bakeries are a little bit marvellous. I think they're just in London though, and that's a long walk for me now just for a loaf and a sticky bun.

What a feck up! seriously.... What i cannot understand is when you do your weekly food shop all 'luxury' items are subject to tax confectionary and such, non essentials...
Why then is that not applied to food bought from 'fast food' outlets?.....

As much a chav food as cheap pizzas and suchlike
If people wish to choose fast food that has to be prepared/ cooked / heated - they should be a taxable uplift on it. If they want to be lazy and have someone else prepare their food / and or cook it - they should have to pay extra for it as it is a non-essential - it is a luxury. If people want to seriously complain about it: go out, buy all the ingredients, make it all from scratch, cook it, watch over it whilst it cooks, clean up the mess afterwards: then you'll see what a bargain hot food is. The stance being taken about foods being allowed to cool down: now - that opens up all sorts then: ie; cooked chickens that sold in supermarkets, etc - but allowed to cool before being sold etc - are they cheaper that the ones that come straight from the roasting spit? I don't think they are? |

I don't get why people always criticise governments for doing u-turns, it's a lot better that they listen to people, recognise they made a mistake and change their minds then to just stick to the guns and force through a policy just for the sake of their pride

Yes, absolutely fair point, but some people just moan about every single thing as far as government is concerned - and give them no credit for when they DO listen to the people: and when such u-turns are made: suddenly the Government haven't a clue. Can't do right for wrong and all that. I had no issue with this added tax but if the voice of the people has made them change their stance: then isn't that a good thing. From small acorns and all taht. |

It is disgusting that they tried to rush this in.... it smacks of a cover story to me, just a bit of spin to bury other dodgy goings on like the Beecroft report..... Either that or Mr Greggs and other 'interested' pasties..er I mean parties donated a substantial sum to the conservative party to get it stopped....Wouldn't surprise me.

Eh don't turn my comment into some kind of pro-Tory post, I was talking about u-turns in general, it doesn't matter if it's Labour or the Tories, they're always mocked and criticised for doing it but they're also criticised if they stick with a policy
