The boss of one of Britain's biggest retailers has played down fears that the coming VAT rise will hurt business.

John Browett, head of DSG, which owns Currys and PC World, told BBC Radio 5 live it won't "make a decisive difference one way or another".

"In our sector we always get price deflation each year as technology gets better," he said, explaining that this would offset the impact of higher VAT.
