EU Referendum: Vote Leave wants power to axe fuel VAT - BBC News

Team Out getting desperate now...

Govey was really struggling on BBC Breakfast this morning. When asked about why we don't reduce immigration from outside the EU he desperately tried to ignore the question and make it about EU migrants. When asked about what could be done about Albanians crossing the channel in dinghies he claimed that Brexit would allow us to patrol our borders without explaining why EU membership stops us. And then finally he went on about how leaving the EU means we *could* remove VAT on fuel when pressed repeatedly he refused to answer as to whether he *would* remove VAT on fuel.

It's like fighting the oppressors for the right for men to have babies. Symbolic of his struggle against reality.

The problem with fuel in UK isn't VAT, but super crazy massive fuel duty which then gets 20% VAT on top of it.

The real problem is that cutting either VAT or duty would mean a lot of tax will need to be found somewhere else.

It was home heating not petrol and diesel, but yes the tax cut is a nonsense promise not least when it comes from someone with no power to deliver tax cuts.

Leading figures backing ‘Brexit’ today said they want powers back from the EU to scrap VAT on fuel to help the poorest households - warning British politicians are powerless to scrap the “unfair and damaging” tax while Britain remains in the EU.

But the rival Stronger In campaign responded by arguing the claims ring hollow since the Vote Leave has made £111bn in spending promises - more than ten times the net £10bn saving they claim would be made on a ‘Yes’ vote.

£111bn is nothing. QE can print that in seconds.

Lets spend, spend, spend......

The European Central Bank is poised to launch a €1tn round of quantitative easing on Thursday...

QE also swelled the Fed’s balance sheet enormously. Its vast bond-buying programme took the balance sheet from about $870bn in August 2007 to $4.5tn today.

etc etc.

Let's all be trillionaires!
