They are sweet, crackers are more savoury.

Tuc are definitely not a biscuit as they can also be bought in their bacon incarnation

Crackers to me are much thinner and less salty, indeed a quick scour of the net calls them 'savoury biscuits'.

I think the UK labels a lot of stuff 'biscuit' though :? :|

I can't imagine anyone using them as crackers, the salt alone...

Under UK tax rules, most traditional bakery products such as bread, cakes, flapjacks and Jaffa Cakes are free of VAT, but the tax is payable on cereal bars, shortbread and partly-coated or wholly-coated biscuits.
