Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

GF - let's try again ..... have you foresaken all your tax avoidance allowances, including writing a will and/or leaving your estate to your wife other than the minimum that the law may demand (not allows)?

I agree that the film investment vehicle is probably legitimate. The company has been funding films for years. There are a number of similar firms. There are also several companies doing something similar with trees as an investment method and tax shelter.................................ends
Robert Maxwell was doing business for years...........it means nothing.
Look what happened to him.

He fell off a boat. Do you think it might have been the taxman who pushed him?

Cynic I have already spelt out what will happen on my death with my personal fortune,
this must be about the 5th time you have asked me.
You can be sure I will be working within the law of the land on any tax issue and not wishing to dump responsibility on other people for taxation.
Sorry I dont have that selfish trait.
ps, I will be paying HMRC for the Mansion Tax and as a British Citizen will be proud to do so. I realise not like a lot of others just how lucky I am to be in this privileged position.

He was forced into falling off that boat. HMCR were just ONE agency forming a que to nab him, after Simon Cawkwell aka Evil K had exposed his accounts and tax returns to the Times newspaper.

working within the law of the land ...... which is exactly what tax avoidance does!
sorry old chap, but you're trying to write your own script as suits while denigrating others who work within precisely that same rule book
and on that happy note, i shall go out for dinner with Beloved as it's our 35th anniversary :-)

Lol, you won't be paying any Mansion Tax because the muppet with a dog called Gromit hasn't got a prayer of ever being PM.

Presumable, sausage and mash is a northern thing? Served with side of barberry, confit kombu and crab biscuit, no doubt.

Northern baiting is a very popular spectator sport down here in the south. The only drawback is that it is too easy. It is not often that there is any decent opposition. The final result is usually a walkover.

Manue;
fred - oh hahaha! ...... in your dreams in your utopian water bed .....
as i wrote previously, generations of previous gov'ts have done no more than tinker at the edges, usually for political gain, and every 5 years
It has been said over the years about tax reforms.
Check back to 1900.
-======
In 1945, the tories said no to changes in the Welfare System, the setting up of th NHS. the changes in Education system and the necessary or society needed nationalisation of worn out Private Industries.
In a democracy a bloodless change you need the majority of the voters to create that change.
Better slowly and addressing mistakes at the same time.
One thing which would aid it is the muzzling of a "bought" press. I doubt possible or acceptable.

Hairy One,
The tax man commeth!
Hope you have your knickers on.

Where is Watford? I operate on a north of Hendon or North Circular basis.
edit
Apparently Watford is 'up north'.
