hissingsid Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 If Truss wins on Monday and she knocks 5% of VAT as she is promising, considering, may…..well until after Monday when she may rethink the suggestion will the Isle of Man Government have to follow suit as we are in an agreement regarding VAT ?

I would say so with a 25% drop in our main source of income. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty Buggane Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) There will not be the oh so smug radio interview with the "We have to increase the vat as we are tied by agreement". All the while rubbing there hands thinking what can we spunk the extra income on. But not to worry he (Elinson) knows his way to the reserves. Till one day the cupboard will be bare.

Last time they messed about with VAT rates it cost some businesses more in faffing about with systems and accounting than it ever generated in savings or additional profits, and most didn’t ever pass the saving onto the customer.
