I gotta say, i find some of the comments in this thread rather selfish.
Everyone wants the cheapest products, many made in slavery/slum conditions by people on starvation wages, whilst also wanting to live in a country like ours, with all its benefits ( paid for by taxes ).
If you want truly cheap products, emigrate to a low cost country.

Rubbish. Its just an example of inept government making life harder for everyone else because they are incapable of balancing a budget... and this wont work either!
