Closed Remove the Value Added Tax charged on toilet rolls and make them VAT Exempt.

Closed on

Value Added Tax is currently charged by HM Treasury on the sale of toilet rolls at the rate of 20%. I believe that this should be abolished as they are not "non-essential, luxury items" and are an essential item as are female hygeine products which are rated at 5%.
