Seriously, without creating bad feeling, I cannot understand it and don't know who to believe.

Thank you.

Yes I have seen it - my sil is from NI - and I know how strongly he and his family feel about this.

So; it's all about the EU not allowing us to take VAT off womens sanitary products. Silly me; I thought it was to turn this country into a tax haven. But how commendable of us; we shall go down in history as the country that ruined it's economy and took away the future of it's young people so women wouldn't have to pay a few pence on a packet of Tampax. Those of course, that don't have to rely on food banks for such items. #proudtobebritish
