Labour Poster Attacks VAT Rise On Food, But You Don't Pay VAT On Food
by Guest Fri May 09, 2014 4:28 pm
The Labour Party's latest election campaign poster has been widely mocked for not making any sense.
The advert, which is being driven around by vans, reads: "They put £450 extra VAT on your shopping bill: Cameron & Clegg, two peas in a pod."
However as critics have pointed out that the advert is more than a little bit inaccurate, as a lot of the food items pictured are VAT exempt.
Tory MP Henry Smith MP said: "It’s the same old economic incompetence from Labour. They have no long-term plan to fix the economy so instead Ed Miliband resorts to political gimmicks that don’t even add up."
