Youre crying about teh tax laws, but they are protected by the EU. Why do you think the elite wanted to stay? Leaving could cost them millions if the UK beef up our tax laws to reduce tax avoidance.

I think she'll win. She's the 'sensible' choice.

Benefit fraud is a crime. Tax evasion is a crime.

Benefit and tax credit fraud costs the UK £1.6bn per annum.

Tax evasion costs the UK an estimated £70bn per annum.

On UK Inheritance Tax again, it is worth considering that you only pay anything if you are in the world's richest 1.5% of people.

Total estimated cost of tax evasion is £70bn per annum. Total estimated cost of tax avoidance is £25bn per annum

There is the tragedy. Elitist media barons, billionaires giving millions in campaign funds, protected.

Sometimes via their own instruments.

While the attention is focused on immigrants (who provide a benefit to the economy) less able to defend themselves who don't have an official voice to speak for them.

For the record, £350m a week is about £18bn a year.

We could easily see the NHS fine tuned and capable from either of those tax avoidance / evasion figures.

How many would rather have seen;
"£400m a week lost on tax avoidance? Let's fund our NHS instead"
On the side of a bus?

I would

As ever the masses have been distracted from the real issue while the exponents of the same can make use of the immigrant labour to boost their earnings even more.

By describing everyone else as 'the masses', you're actually considering yourself an elitist, or at the very least, superior

Its ok mate I have realised coherency and understanding even simple sentences can be beyond you without introducing your prejudices into the reasoning.

You can't have been very good at those comprehension tests at school.

Getting round inheritance tax is tax avoidance noe evasion.

Its the principle of inheritance tax that I don't agree it

To be fair, cannot blame them when a racist Aussie continues to force his agenda through the vast majority of media he owns in this country

--------------------------------------------
he even went so far as to say that when he goes to Downing Street, they listen to him, but when he goes to Brussels they don't!

That wealth / savings / property would already have been taxed once when it was first earned/bought, and is taxed again on being bequeathed.

Theresa May: Brexit means Brexit. There should be no General Election till 2020. Article 50 not this year.

Inheritance tax is, as someone said, going up to only being paid on estates above £1m. Thats means the first million is tax free and inheritance tax is paid on the amount above that. Most of the people with more will have avoided tax anyway so it would not be taxed twice. Another change (not sure if its already come in or due to) is inheritance tax will be taken directly frm the estate. Previously the inheriter had to stump up the money before the estate could be released. That was an absolute travesty as poorer people couldnt pay and would not receive the life changing inheritance.

Yeah, I've seen the argument a thousand times, and I don't agree with it.

Inheritance tax should exist to:

- Help pay for public services relied on most heavily by the poorest and most vulnerable in society

- Help create a level playing field - a meritocracy - in which the best schools, then universities, then top jobs, are not filled with the mega rich, rather than the most competent

- Help redistribute wealth that should be circulating in the economy, not just stockpiled to its detriment

Again, nobody in the UK pays a penny of Inheritance Tax unless they are in the world's richest 1.5%

At over a million quid, you'd have to be in the world's richest 0.5% to pay a penny in tax.

How can people complain about that? We have hundreds of thousands of kids living in abject poverty in what is one of the world's 'wealthiest' countries, for fecking feck's fecking sake.
