Lightbulb VAT petition

This link was posted on Bikers Oracle Sprint forum and I thought it was worthy of posting here.

"We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Remove VAT on all motorcycle clothing, not just helmets, to encourage the wider use of protective motorcycle clothing.
Motorcycle helmets are already VAT exempt because they categorised as mandatory safety equipment. As a step towards improving road safety for motorcyclists; a reduction in cost of other protective clothing to encourage it's use. This should stop short of making such clothing mandatory whilst promoting recognition of the benefits of this equipment."
