So like I said how can you in the one breath threaten to slaughter a HUGE % of the holiday market and the attractions that go with it and then in the next breath state that getting the economy going is a priority.
And the worst of it is that the figures about how much it will kill the holiday market are from the governments own consultants.
It's having a murderous double affect as well, lots of owners on the site we puchased a van on last year are trying to sell up now [rather than at seasons end] in far higher numbers than usual and the default rate on new vans purchased last autumn has also never been higher, this means a higher than usual flood earlier of 2nd user vans hitting the market and taking sales away from the new ones, coupled with more and more families knowing they can only ever afford this kind of holiday for the next few years, with more and more limited supply means prices rise and less people can afford to take breaks.
