THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

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.

How embarrassing!

Ed Miliband's US adviser David Axelrod pays no tax in Britain

David Axelrod, the former adviser to Barack Obama, tells The Telegraph that he is resident for tax purposes in the US

Ed Miliband's most senior adviser pays no tax on his reported £300,000 earnings in Britain, The Telegraph has learned.

David Axelrod, a former adviser to Barack Obama, admitted that he is not resident for tax purposes in the UK.

Labour confirmed it pays Mr Axelrod in dollars through his consultancy and that he "lives in the US, works in the US and pays taxes in the US".

While it is unclear how much tax Mr Axelrod will pay in the US, the rates of tax for companies are often significantly lower than for individuals.

The admission comes after Ed Miliband put a crackdown foreigners who pay lower rates of tax at the heart of his election manifesto.

Critics said that there is a "moral case" for Mr Axelrod to pay tax on his consultancy fees in the UK even if he does not need to do so under the law.

One Labour MP said: "I don't understand what we are getting for the £300,000, I think it is an obscene amount, I don't think he brings anything to the party. I have heard nothing from him and I don't want to. He's totally invisible."

Like I said Labour is full of hypocrites who, having made good or simply been born into money, want to stay ahead of the rest of us. That is why they deny similar opportunities for the people.
''Queen of Hypocricy''---I don't know, Hypocrite Harriet Harman would run her close.

Ed Miliband's US adviser David Axelrod pays no tax in Britain
David Axelrod, the former adviser to Barack Obama, tells The Telegraph that he is resident for tax purposes in the US

Ed Miliband's most senior adviser pays no tax on his reported £300,000 earnings in Britain, The Telegraph has learned.
David Axelrod, a former adviser to Barack Obama, admitted that he is not resident for tax purposes in the UK.


Labour confirmed it pays Mr Axelrod in dollars through his consultancy and that he "lives in the US, works in the US and pays taxes in the US".


While it is unclear how much tax Mr Axelrod will pay in the US, the rates of tax for companies are often significantly lower than for individuals.

Critics said that there is a "moral case" for Mr Axelrod to pay tax on his consultancy fees in the UK even if he does not need to do so under the law.


It comes amid growing concern among Labour MPs that Mr Axelrod has been "invisible" in the run up to the election despite his high levels of pay.
They complained that he appears to have spent more time promoting his biography - which does not mention Mr Miliband or Labour once - than supporting the party.
One Labour MP said: "I don't understand what we are getting for the £300,000, I think it is an obscene amount, I don't think he brings anything to the party. I have heard nothing from him and I don't want to. He's totally invisible."

2517,

Before you shoot mouth off more once again

Compare the circumstances and rules when Thornberry bought the house off the housing association and the ludicrous and financial implication of the proposed tory party policy of “right to buy”.

Also, would suggest you look at her career!

-=-=-=-=-=-

I thought the white van brigade were all UKIP voters.

Also have a look at the financial arrangements of Cameron, Osborne, and cronies, but don’t forget to look at Farage financial arrangements and expense claims. Check their trust arrangements and overseas properties.

Reminds me of glasshouses.









MaxK - 16 Apr 2015 10:33 - 58680 of 81564



If you cant see the hypocrisy Fred, you need to go to Specsavers.

=====================================

Oh dear Fred that's not nice is it ,

i'm sure there are many decent hard working white van men trying to earn a living ..

Haystack - 16 Apr 2015 10:50 - 58682 of 81564

You have to realise that Fred is also a hypocrite, so the comment was in character.

2517GEORGE - 16 Apr 2015 11:00 - 58683 of 81564

I stand by what I have been saying for many months, and in some cases years, the Labour is full of hypocrites.
It's very fitting that you want the financial arrangements of certain (Tory & UKIP) MP's but none of your beloved Labour party.

J B.

It wasn't meant to be!

I didn't know utilising the rules open to all in a society, certain groups became hypocrites.

I suppose any mud will do for some.

====-=

Also, suggest you don't believe your own fictitious conceptions regarding my political adherence.

-=-=-=-==

But tell me about the falsehoods in the financing of the NHS and the economic projections, or lies of Cameron and cohorts.

It is a pity that the tory chicken isn't prepared to face the public in a debate and defend his record of mismanagement!

What else is he hiding, or is he frightened of a public hiding.

====
Check the tory backers and what they expect from their puppet!

Methinks I struck a nerve.
