Ok, lets start. You said.
Everyone else in this thread disagreed that they related 'duties' to VAT.
You seemed to have changed your stance from 'the average person' to 'ive come across people...'. Please stick to one point in future.

Why would anyone call VAT an import duty
Because many don't understand how the import tax system works? Just as people refer to the pc tower as the hard drive, two different things but people still use the terms interchangeably.

Energize is correct in that when *a lot* of people get that letter from Parcelforce that says they are holding your parcel until fees are paid, they moan about being stung for import tax.
It's just a turn of phrase.
*In my experience*.
