Petition Reduce or abolish VAT on essential healthcare products

More details

Healthcare products are as important as essential foods! We live on toiletries for our hygiene and health, not pleasure!

Things like fragrances and luxury healthcare products can remain taxed, but for things like:

- Dental care
- Shampoo and shower gel
- Body and facial wash
- Deodorants / Body/underarm sprays
- Essential creams
- Toilet roll

VAT should be reduced or abolished on these items, because they are no luxury, they are part of daily living.
