Rejected petition Reduce VAT to help ease the cost of living crisis and strain on normal people
Britons are borrowing more money, with half unable to save at all. UK inflation is rising at a 40-yr record pace and lenders raising mortgage rates. The proportion in financial difficulty is increasing, with spending falling and consumer confidence at a record low. Reduce VAT to help regular people.
