Cyclone Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 No, I wouldn't. It's dishonest and immoral. If it's legal then it's not dishonest, and if it's not dishonest then it's not immoral. If it's by means of using an offshore umbrella or a limited company then it's likely to be ineffective though. And HMRC have the ability to backdate changes for up to 6 years, which means a perfectly legal scheme can be made illegal and they can then land you a large tax bill.

Cyclone Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Is this that trick where you siphon it off into your pension like UNISON boss Dave Prentis? Paying into a pension is considered to be a trick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyclone Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Employees would have to find other ways. But if possible that is what I'm getting at. IR35 made it impossible for employee's to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSmith Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Hypocrite news latest ***Poll shows SF users would gladly do the things they spend all day complaining about others doing.*** Sounds about right, I did a poll a couple of weeks back and most were happy to have a little money whist someone else had a lot.

Unless you're massively wealthy, in which case you pay someone to exploit every loophole to keep the taxman at bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
