I don't understand what more information you are so desperately seeking.  Legally and in terms of registration they operate from the address of stated on companies house. That is where their legal paperwork will be served and where any proceedings against them will be submitted

I'm not 'desperately seeking' any further information, and I am not suggesting they are doing anything illegally.

Listening to bbc5Live last night,  someone phoned in to say that raising 3% income tax on the highest earners would wipe out the 22bn deficit.

That could be, but if it was raised to 6% it might cover a wage rise for public sector workers, and at 9% more money for local authorities, etc etc.

How about 100% for everyone, and the Government decides what to pay you?

But you are clearly trying to suggest they are up to something. Hence why you keep making comments about their 'convenient' registered address with their accountants and pushing for information about being able to 'trace' them and where office operations are 'based'.

 

Just come out with it. What is it you are so suspicious of?

The 22bn figure is disputed and includes huge pay rises given to the junior doctors and train drivers.

 

Had the Conservatives been put into power, they would have needed to pay the pay rises, there could have been a 1/2% difference

Great program on radio four, I don't always get to listen to it. I am guessing not many Reform voters listen.

Why would they have needed to pay the rises?

If you listen to the Radio Four fact check it states that in previous years the Tory Government paid the pay rises that were recommended by the pay review body, but this year they did not budget for that amount.
