Petition No To VAT ON Hot Food

More details

Hot food bought from bakeries and supermarkets is to become more costly thanks to George Osborne's Budget, it emerged today.

The Chancellor has decided that VAT at 20 per cent should be added to all hot takeaway food, not just products sold by fast food chains.

This means that at the Greggs bakery chain 18p will be added to the price of a 90p hot sausage roll and 30p to a £1.49 pasty.
