5p Charge For Carrier Bags From Oct 5th

How much is 70 microns though?

 

0.07mm .... Which is really thin. The typical plastic bag you would have got last week would have been no more than 25 micron. A 'bag for life' is a lot thicker but most are still under 70 micron. I'm still not sure where the 0.83 pence VAT charge per bag is going tho. Or what it might get spent on. But all of the plastic bag VAT might only add up to pay for one rocket fired in the Middle East over the course of a year I suppose.
