Remove all VAT on applicable Licensed Taxis
Remove VAT charges for all applicable licensed public-hire taxis, including London black cabs. Buses and trains are zero-rated for VAT under the VAT Act 1994. All licensed taxis, regardless of income, should receive the same treatment as public transport to support clean, accessible travel.
Remove VAT on all public utility bills
We believe VAT was never meant to be applied to life essentials and it was meant to be a BREXIT benefit. The UK has some of the highest electricity prices in Western Europe! We believe this is why so many citizens struggle whilst energy companies make huge profits, and why GDP is low.
Reduce VAT on public electric vehicle charging to 5% in line with home charging
Reduce VAT on public vehicle charging to 5% inline with home charging so people without home/off street parking are not penalized. I think it would accelerate the potential of electric vehicle take up.
Remove VAT from all Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for construction workers
Remove VAT from all certified Personal Protective Equipment —not just certified safety boots and helmets—so every worker in UK construction is better able to afford the gear that keeps them safe, We think this would also support the government’s drive to boost building, skills and productivity.
Reverse VAT changes on Advance Payments for Motability Vehicles
We want the Government to reverse the changes it made to VAT on advance payments for Motability vehicles, as proposed in the latest Budget. These changes could result in people taking cars that are not suitable due to price increases.
