No doubt some of you will by now have discovered the latest Greedy Brown rip off,the Scorpio VEL has been steadily rising by £5 each budget,but as a parting gesture he has seen fit to put £15 on this budget making the grand sum of £205,nothing was mentioned of course,makes you wonder what the new alliance will do next year,they won't lower it that's for sure !!

This years rise is something I can't quite grasp.

Yes my 2.3 has increased by £15 to £205. But the Emporium van which is a 2.5 diesel has only increased by £10 to £200 ???

They taxed it by using a post office owned by one of their country cousins from http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs11/i/2006/257/7/9/_pakistan__by_Californicarlos.gif so maybe they got a discount. http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs12/i/2006/274/0/f/_shocked_by_sml_e.gif

I seem to remember this increase was announced a couple of years ago in the budget & was due to take effect this year ;)

P.S....I've heard that eviction officers have been to No10 & are having trouble getting Gordon Brown out after he super-glued himself to the lounge wall ::)

See here (http://www.bytestart.co.uk/content/taxlegal/9_15/ved-rates-2009-2011.shtml) for the rates It was a couple of years back that it was announced and like most taxes had been forgotten about until it happens
