[WATCH] The proposed VAT increase of 0.5 percentage points in each of the next two years, bringing VAT to 15.5% in 2025 and 16% in 2026/27, is a carefully measured intervention designed to sustain government revenue without disproportionately affecting the poor. #AWorkingBudget #BudgetForTheFuture

Here is Ed Miliband floundering to justify the enormous government petrol taxation rip off at our expense. Taxation (fuel duty and VAT) contributes to more than 50% of the petrol price. The government is fleecing us and Ed Miliband isn’t being honest with us.

The Division of Revenue Bill and Appropriations Bill must be in line with the adopted Fiscal Framework and Revenue Proposal. The question becomes if the Minister is set to introduce two new versions of these bills, which Fiscal Framework will they be in line with as according to the Money Bills Amendment Act. There would now need to be a reversal the adoption of the previous Fiscal Framework, the introduction of a new Fiscal Framework and the new Division of Revenue Bill and Appropriations Bill - this is on top of his new amendment Bill. If this is possible before the 01st of May 2025, we more than welcome such efforts.

Wrote an open letter to Chief Minister Revanth Reddy demanding an immediate reduction of VAT on petrol and diesel to provide relief to the people of Telangana. While fuel prices continue to rise and people struggle with inflation and increasing living costs, the Congress government is earning nearly ₹2,000 crore additional revenue annually through higher VAT collections. Before elections, Congress promised relief on fuel prices. After coming to power, not even a 0.1% reduction in VAT has been implemented. The government must stand with the people, not profit from their suffering. We demand an immediate reduction of at least 10% in VAT on petrol and diesel. Telangana CMO

BREAKING: Tucker Carlson Is Buying Property In Qatar Speaking on stage at the Doha Forum in Qatar, Tucker Carlson told Qatar’s Prime Minister Al Thani that he is buying a place in Qatar this week because he’s an “American” and he will live and go wherever he wants. Tucker says he’s never taken anything from Qatar. Omeed Malik is sitting up front, and he can be seen clapping. Qatar is the financier of the Muslim Brotherhood and they continue to allow HAMAS officials to live in Doha, where Tucker now wants to buy a place to live. The Prime Minister then admitted Qatar spends “a lot of money on lobbying” by paying for people to come to Qatar so they can “protect” the US-Qatari relationship.
