So The Uk Is Still Controlled By The Eu Then.
Jeremy Hunt has admitted that he cannot further raise the VAT threshold for UK businesses because of EU Rules.This muppet chancellor announced in his Budget that businesses would no longer have to pay VAT on a turnover of less than £90.000 an increase from £85,000 But he can not raise it anymore because of EU rules. So the UK is still being controlled by the Eu then .

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.It is to doo with the idiculous Northern Ireland Protocol and the associated "Windsor Framework", webbo. Businesses in NI must not have an advantage over their EU competitors. Quite what that has to do with ensuring a border free Ireland is anybody's guess, but it is the EU we're talking about here. Why any UK politician sees the need tlo do "deals" with that pernicious protection racket beats me.
So Brexit was not just a faliure, it was a complete faliure . Britain left the EU in name only .Still connected by Vat rules ,Still not taken back control of it's own borders and still letting thousands of immigrant boat people to land on their shores and not dancing and skipping over the sunlit uplands .
I'll clear up gulliver's misunderstanding.
He could raise the figure if wants in England Scotland and Wales- the EU don't have control of that. The only part of UK where we can't go above £90000 is NI because under the protocol the EU had a chance to be awkward for the sake of it.
It's Hunt's choice at the moment not to have different levels in NI and UK.
Hopefully the protocol will be improved. What plans do Labour have?
