Cottingham traders stage protest over Chancellor's tax plan
INDEPENDENT traders are protesting outside Cottingham Civic Hall today over a possible rise in business rates.
The traders have been joined by East Riding councillors and national campaign group the Taxpayers' Alliance for a demonstration ahead of tomorrow's Autumn Statement from Chancellor George Osborne.
Mr Osborne is expected to announce a 2.6 per cent rise in rates for 2013.
The traders are calling for rates to be frozen.

“Perhaps we should introduce this immediately after the freeze on profits. Surely these people who are probably all tory voters can see this is just part of George's we are all in this together or Dave's Big Society contribution!”

“So the govt want more people in work, more businesses being created...... and to help accomplish that goal want to put business rates up!!???
If it happens, its madness, even by Osbornes current standards.”
