It's the first thing that crossed my mind.
Funny that they went against their own advisor!
If it is supposed to be "a level playing field", with similar levels of duties etc, how come there's so much difference between countries.
Is there a right of appeal?

Of course this government has proved time and again its dishonesty.
It twists and distorts and massages the figures , it sets one man against another in its efforts to divide and conquer.
We only seem to have disadvantages from the EU.
yes join the EU we can all be equal......4 legs good 2 legs bad

With this government anything is possible - yeah I think along those lines. Why would they allow all that tax free in UK when they make millions from smokers.
