Idly looked at all today's paper headlines while shopping today.

All were about tax avoidance in one form or another.


I musty admit I get fed up with all the Tax Avoidance publicity.

Me too - lets face it, anyone who has/had an ISA or a TESSA is/was
seeking to avoid tax.

Maybe, but when I was a computer programmer with my own ltd co
working through an agency, it never occurred to me that I could
send my money to Mauritious and then 'lend' it back to me
free of tax, with no obligation to pay it back, and escape the
notice of HMRC.

you may not have done but there were several schemes marketed at people
just
like you and many took advantage of it

Most, if not all were unwound by HMRC and the people concerned got large
tax
bills to pay.



However, it would never escape the notice of my accountant, so
how come Mrs Browns 'boys' get away with it ?.

you just employ a different accountant


yes it's strange that only those that can afford very expensive accountant
can afford to aviod tax. Backhanders to certain people spring to mind.


It's clear that the people who design these schemes pay backhanders to the
accountants that recommend them

were you suggesting something more sinister?


More sinsister than breaking tax laws for money ?

Or are yuo saying Lewis Hameltons ex was a prostitute ?
sorry can't remmeber her name but he took here on his own airplane/jet for a holiday.
