the letter to Gordon Brown is real enough.

bumpity bump (done it already but think it's important to get this out there).

of course they are just lowering the price, but by saying they are cutting the vat they are making a point. i am v blonde with v fair skin and always use kids suncream min factor 40. i cant go out on hot days without it as i burn within 20 minutes. tbh i dont see why adults should have to pay vat on sun cream either, its not like i put it on cos i like it, i hate the stuff. i just dont want to die of skin cancer, which i dont think is particularly unreasonable

and bump, obviously

Now remove VAT on all would make far more sense. Otherwise, open to abuse and unworkable. It's still PR hogwash by Superdrug. If they can drop the price by 17.5% their mark-up must still be high. Thought anything over 30+ was a con (usually more expensive)anyway. I'm sure (?) Australia has highest spf of 30+, any higher is too insignificant.
