Interest rates and VAT could go up again but when, is that a reason for not starting a business - again personally speaking the reduced VAT rate recently didnt curb or encourage my spending pattern. I was amused when the High Street stores were pronouncing pre vat increase prices - ok im off to buy my new laptop now because i save
