Partly yes. Also though small businesses being scammed by dodgy advisers to pay "subcontractors" who are really employees is a big part of it.

This is tax which HMRC believes is payable which is not paid. The wealthy are in fact not the problem. Of course you can tax them more by changing the rates and approach, but they are generally not avoiding tax, just using the rules as they were largely intended. 40% of small businesses meanwhile are underpaying tax.

IF we are in and around the top 3-4 I would be splashing 20M plus on a striker to get us up.

Where tax is not being paid according to HMRC…

A lot of the other stats are also dubious. For example, the government controls completely the amount of tax corporates pay, and the way they pay it, so to say corporate tax strategies - utilising rules which are understood by and often created by government to encourage investment etc - "costs" us money is nonsense. They could close a lot of the gaps immediately, and those they can't they have the choice to offset with other corporate taxes. They don't do so because they have a very good view of the total corporate taxation burden on companies, and to increase it would be counterproductive to the overall tax income, ergo, there is not a real gap in corporate tax contributions.

The police are held to a different standard imo. Not acceptable to be saying people have racist convictions, especially as that could ne taken to mean criminal convictions from a copper.

That is AN argument. I suspect more likely is the economy shifts as it has always done to value different things, and people will pay for that. We definitely need to find an effective way of taxing companies based on where they earn revenues, not on where they are based or hold the IP.

Fundamentally, if the masses don't have money to spend, the economy will grind to a halt and the rich won't be able to sell their goods and services. I suspect it will be quite painful along the way though.

The nuclear option is not in fact an option if those who are attacking you are in fact in your country. Or even right next door.

Took me four as well.

its new, but is it news??

Agreed, and also a bit pathetic frankly. West MIds police have over 9000 officers ffs.

'Big John' Fisher: British social media star detained in Australia over visa No idea who this bloke is, but you can't come in on a tourist visa / ETA and then work.

Thanks Mitch for your 13 years commitment to the club! Top class fitness coaches are worth their weight in gold, so I am sure he will be missed.

I have a tendency to be way way too optimistic about new signings... especially this is the guy who will replace Vardy!!! Every time.

GDP growth is always compared in %, so your argument makes no sense.

Is it? I am not sure you have any basis for that do you?

I was half thinking this is a non-issue, but I haven't tried a smoothie. They are a bit weird when you only visit Europe occasionally.

I would say he is anyway, we are losing close to the maximum every PSR period, over or under. That is cash he is putting in, initially as loans then routinely converted to equity.

When you are rich at the level Top is rich you either buy more assets or invest in the ones you already have. Buying players would be the latter.

I remember seeing that taxiing up and down the runway at Bruntingthorpe. A few years ago now! but you don't forget the noise!

I doubt it's a club fundraising effort, probably put on by the producers of the documentary.

I tend to think they have done work that needed doing anyway, even if it is not the cause of the noise. Take it back in ask them to jump in for a quick drive to demo the noise. Get the tracking done - tracking gear is expensive I understand, so a lot of smaller garages don't have it as it is usually done after new tyres. They could find a local place to do it, but then you pay for their labour cost to take it instead of doing it yourself. Garages pretty much always order the parts before you confirm, otherwise you would be waiting longer. They can send them back.

No doubt someone has put their heart and soul into making this documentary, and no doubt it is important to them. Perhaps lets not laugh at them.

What do you shout if you see a duck coming?
