Would the Minister publicly call out price gouging and state that the prices being offered at the moment are not fair and do not provide value for money? We cannot compare them with prices across Europe. Would she send the message out that should this type of thing continue, it will cause long-term reputational damage to this country and that she will reconsider the wisdom of extending the VAT reduction if the benefit is not being passed to the consumer? The problem is not demand; the problem here is pure and utter greed.
