Petition SCRAP THE VALUE ADDED TAX ON CHILDRENS ENTERTAINMENT.

More details

I have begun this petition to have the VAT which is currently based at 20% removed from the entry prices at Theme Parks and all forms of Childrens entertianment.
This includes Cinema tickets, Bowling, Football Matches and many other activities that they enjoy.

At the moment it costs families a small fortune to take children out for the day, add in the price of petrol and travel the cost spirals out of proportion.

Currently it costs between £20 to £40 to enter most good Theme Parks, within this is around £4 to £8 tax per child, this adds up when you have take in additional children.

I think the levy should be withdrawn from the price of all childrens entertainment, it is crassly unfair.
