Jammie Tax Dodging Options

[Andy Capp]

OK, who would not avoid paying tax they needn't pay? How many people have their partner as a 'company secretary' and other such 'scams'?

Conspiracy theorists amongst us may well ask if this is not some non-story dreamt up by the spin-doctor general in order to deflect from something a little less palatable . Surely if there is a loophole in the system it is up to HM collector of taxes to plug it ? I have no time for the idle rich but if someone made a cost effective offer to me to reduce my tax bill , my legs would move pretty rapidly .
Interesting note to the remoners , Isles of Man and Channel are not members of the EU so soon our respective fiscal systems may be a little more comparable .

Bangs on about Brexit, soveriegnity, and patriotism but is happy not to pay tax. How does that go together?

Surely the idea is that HM collector of Taxes closes any loopholes that allow avoidance of said payment ? They are , after all , paid to do exactly that . I do not recall advocating non-payment anymore than suggesting that somehow it is acceptable to engage the services of an accountant that is more au fait with current legislation than the people who drew it up . I very much doubt anyone would pay tax if they were not asked to but most of us abide by the law .
