As you can see, UK duty is nearly £2 a bottle (£1.90 now, rising to £2 in the next Budget) and there’s 20% VAT on the duty and the wine. UK wine retailers – whether supermarkets, merchants, websites or shops – have to add the dreaded £1.90 duty to the cost of the bottle before adding their margin and VAT. By contrast, there is no duty in Germany, Spain, Italy, Austria, Portugal and many other EU countries. In France, it’s 3p.

Fecking outrageous!  cussing:

I wonder how much Lidl Red I can get in my suitcase at €2.99 a bottle....  rubschin:

Of course, the bottom line is that if they didn't steal it from you when you bought a bottle of wine they'd have to take it from elsewhere...

...which begs the question, 'where does all the money go...?'

I've been away from the UK for ten years now... and the country is completely, financially fucked - in debt to the tune of trillions....

When I return in a week, will I see any evidence that any of the money has been wisely spent....?

Meanwhile, VAT will rise by 1% to 18% from January 1, 2013, and by a further 1% a year later. Items which are currently taxed at a reduced rate of 8% will also see a rise by 1% from January 1, 2014. There are also extra tax hikes on tobacco and alcohol, with the tax on rolling tobacco increasing by 150%, from EUR60 per kilogram to EUR150, and the tax on pure alcohol rising from EUR598.01 per 100 liters to EUR956.82. There are also tax increases for beer and cigarettes, but not for wine or cigars........




150%  they must be smoking something.................. noooo:

When I return in a week, will I see any evidence that any of the money has been wisely spent....?

Simple answer ~ no.

Correct answer!  Thumbs:

The thing that struck me most was the disgusting state of the roads - full of fecking pot holes...

Yet they've obviously spent a millionteen Pounds on white paint, speed restrictions, signs that light up and say you are going too fast for the corner (I'll decide what is too fast), etc.

If they spend half of the money that is wasted on restrictions and nannying on repairing the roads they'd be a lot better off...

Some of it has fish in it, some has finely ground up dirt and we all know Greek wine has added toilet cleaner in it to give than pine fragrance.   

As a general rule with wine never look at the ingredients just drink it

Have you noticed the quality of supermarket wine declining?  Have you noticed prices of mass-market wine in the UK rising over the last few years?

The explanation lies in the mealy-mouthed declaration of the Chancellor of the Exchequer each Budget day when he announces, usually in a rather self-satisfied way, that for taxes/duties on alcohol there will be 'no change'. What he means is not that there will be no change to duty rates but that there will be no changes to the measures for a duty escalator brought in in 2008 whereby wine duty rises automatically by inflation plus 2%. So, every year, duties on wines and spirits rise inexorably, by 50% since 2008, as set out years ago.

At 7.9% it is not far short of some vino strengths. I seem to remember it was 85 Cents per half litre can. It should be sold with a brown paper bag wrapped around it for those who like to drink in public parks or under bridges.
