"Beyond the everyday world … lies the world of VAT; a kind of fiscal theme park in which factual and legal realities are suspended or inverted."
Lord Justice Sedley’s decision in Royal & Sun Alliance v C&E commissioners (Court of Appeal) 2001
"VAT will be a simple tax on the supply of goods and services."
Anthony Barber MP, Chancellor of the Exchequer 1972
