VAT was introduced in 1973 as a condition of our joining the European Community.
You're a bit late in getting your object in.
The UK have far more exemptions than anyone else, and that is only right. It should be up to the Chancellor what he taxes and what he doesn't. But if taxes are levied there should be some harmonisation of rates throught the EU.

It is ridiculous that for the UK to make Sanitary Products Zero rated, it would need all 28 EU members to agree.
But, until this threat of a Commons defeat, I don't think the Government were trying very hard (if at all) to make it happen. The Government have now said they will pursue the matter with Brussels so the tampon tax could be lifted.

How did they come NOT to be zero rated in the first place. As pointed out, it is a bit daft that razoes are ero rated but not these.

"Asked about the calls for a zero VAT rate, the prime minister's spokeswoman said: "What is being proposed is not something that being looked at we think is achievable." - Pardon???

I remember arguing furiously on this subject at the time. They class as
essential items IMO. Looking back, I realise that whilst women's protests were listened to sympathetically, back in the '70s politicians didn't regard them as a force to be reckoned with. It was a sort of sympathetic, head-patting response that you got - ' women's things, you know, dear lady'. (Think Sir Humphrey).
Of course we need to be out of the EU, more and more urgently.
