Jimmy Carr, tax avoidance, and morality


Recommended Posts

It's wrong that this is legal to do. Slightly bizarre that Cameron has had a go at a celebrity though, when the cabinet is probably full of tax avoiders.

 

It will be interesting to see if this loop hole is watertight. Getting your income paid to a third party who then "loans" you the money back does seem to be a bit on the shifty side.

 

I guess the reason that the PM has gone after the high profile case is to build groundswell of opinion so to present the case to party as something the people want or even demand.

Probably ? Thats quite an allegation to end with probably. Where is the proof?

Daltrey owns a farm at Holmshurst Manor, a country estate near Burwash, Sussex, built in 1610, as well as his parents' old home in London. He designed and built Lakedown Trout Fishery near Burwash, documented in the film Underwater World of Trout, Vol. 1.[61] He bought a home in Los Angeles in the early 2000s.

 

We wont get fooled again, they all pee in the same pot.

We'll have to see how it pans out. Some of these schemes get quietly closed down.
