ricgem2002 Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 would you prefer all UK companies who trade abroad to pay all their tax in those countries..? isnt that what they do now ( paying tax in the countries with the lower tax rate) :hihi: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmaximus Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 But they still rent/lease property which would probably be empty otherwise..I assume they pay VAT I also assume they use power and light,pay NI and income tax etc etc...would you prefer all UK companies who trade abroad to pay all their tax in those countries..? Or open green space because it isn't required, I don't think our country is big enough to employ the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxmaximus Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 What if the company was an exporter... Like my first two words say, not always. But even if they export it doesn't mean they are a net benefit if they are a foreign company that doesn’t pay UK tax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK I give up you're right it's better to have empty factories with no-one working in them than it is to have some foreign workers doing the jobs...you ought to run for parliament...

gnvqsos Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 When the schooling system was dumbed down to the point that most people don't know what the balance of payments is, much less why we care about it. What is the balance of trade then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say that, you appear to be all or nothing, I said it’s not always a benefit, sometime it is and sometimes it isn't, we can't just keep building factories and houses to employ the world, we are already the most over populated country in Europe, at some point our population simply as to stop growing.

Hardly wrong EU money isn't from the state. If someone gets loads of £££££££££ from the EU and uses it to pay UK workers or spends it on UK services, isn't that rather better than the money being handed out to Croatians to make cheap cars that they can sell to us at the expense of our own industry?

We don't need to build them there are plenty of empty ones...haven't you seen them? The companies are there as in an earlier post,the work is there..it's just that the British people appear to not want to do it...still better the company takes any investment abroad eh?
