China are already mining on the moon, but round the back so nobody can see!.......

My advance apologies as this is now moving off topic but a response is merited -
Unfortunately in many instances your choice of MP is either the monkey or the organ grinder, neither of which is suitable.
Your choice is red or blue and other colours have little prospect of making any noticeable changes.
I don't recall if it was Singapore or Hong Kong a couple of generations ago, abolished all tax so whatever your earned you kept.
The other side of the coin however was that nothing was free - you paid for kids education, health, no welfare etc.
No freebies and no cash for sitting on your arse all day watching TV expecting someone else to feed you, raise your kids and pay your bills.
In some countries in the EU if you get ill and are in hospital you pay a daily rate for your bed and you need to order in food or have a partner or friend bring food for you.
I know of someone undergoing daily chemo that lives in his car, parked in the hospital carpark rather than pay for a bed.
Too many things in the UK are free and consequently abused but have to be paid for by taxing everyone to the hilt either through PAYE or VAT.

This whole thread can be boiled down to people moaning that the UK hasn't continued a tax loophole found in one tiny country in the EU. 
People buying coins, is never going to be high on the Governments list of things to do. For every person on here who knew about and used the loophole there are a hundred people buying silver with 20% vat on it without batting an eyelid.  
Perhaps instead of whinging about how you cant avoid tax on something anymore, (you pay it on everything else), just change your stacking strategy. There is plenty of VAT free silver out there, in fact there are thousands of tons of VAT free silver waiting to be bought in the UK right now. It's called flatware.

I realise that European firms are supposed to remove the VAT for export but I suspect that they won't make the effort to remove these odd margin VAT scheme charges.  They will just sell it as they do to everyone and the UK will slap 20% on top.
I don't think that this is a potential money maker for the HMRC.  All of the Royal mint product goes abroad without VAT applied.  It then has dealer margins applied in Europe and the HMRC gets nothing.  If they think that all of the trade from UK buyers buying from Germany will continue in the UK and they can cream 20% off British citizens they are not thinking straight.  All they will do is kill the market.  The 20% doesn't exist for them and never has.  It's kind of like the cigarette duty that you hear them crying about losing billions of pounds over each year.  The hooky tobacco that enters the country is NOT lost duty for the revenue.  It is an imaginary market because many of those people who were paying half price for their tobacco simply can't pay full price (the UK duty) and would give up.
If the gov think they can tax 20% a small market and expect it to continue they are idiots.  Far better would be to abolish it and bring the centre for silver bullion trading back to the UK.  It was stolen by the Europeans years ago when VAT got applied selectively.  All trade moved to the VAT workaround zone and the bullion market in silver was lost.  Real idiots run governments because all revenue from it was lost.  Time to bring it back and promote our bullion dealers instead.  I think I will write to my MP pointing this out and suggest that now is the time to give our bullion industry a boost.  

Agree on some points... but Recession not as bad as we think..... The whole world has stopped for well on 7 months......  and Governments are going to pay for it.... it will take a decade to recovery.. We have Brexit at the end of the year and now this.... maybe I am a doom merchant but with unemployment bound to climb into 2021... I agree on one thing.... no re clue as to where anything will go
