Maybe the way to stop tax avoidance would be to simplify the tax system. Something like this:
Everyone earning over £8000.00 pays 30% income tax.
No loop holes if you are paid into a UK bank account or have a home in the UK you pay.
But that would not be 'fair' to those that feel the weathy should pay more.

Well they can't complain BG if you earn more you pay more, somebody earning £20,000 pays 6 grand, someone earning £200,000 pays 60 grand seems fair enough to me

Thats a LL of a lot of tax on 8 grand, does'nt leave much to live off.
Its not much more than a pensioner gets.
Minimum wage 6 quid an hour for 40 hours gives 12480 quid a year.

Okay so let's tweak it a bit...
Income tax threshold £8000.00
Between £8000.00 and £20,000.00 15% tax,
Over £20,000.00 30% tax.
Or we could have a civil war!!!

A taste of things to come?

On Thursday I thought the demo would have finished on my way back but when I couldn't get a bus, I realised it was still on. I walked down to Trafalgar Square and came across this which I videod...

YouTube - London Student demo 9th december 2010.wmv

Wow, pulling lights off a Christmas tree! True revolutionaries.Che would have been proud of them.I wonder who did it? The Latvian,,Argentinian,Italian,German or Spanish anarchists? We certainly seem to have some of the oldest students in the world.
This did the cause of our REAL students no good at all.

Police containment tactics, although considered neccessary by some, seem to be having unexpected side effects

YouTube - 15 year old Tells Establishment to Stick-it.

Ya and riping the flag off the Cenotaph, by a pampered so called Rock Stars son, was a real eye opener

'15 year old tells establishment to stick it'.There you see a future MP(wonder which party?) or a revolutionary anarchist or both if he's really ambitious.'We know they don't think we're a danger to the public'. 'We know they don't think we're going to run riot'. He's off to a good start. Also notice he was a well trained public speaker-not your average schoolboy from an average school.
As for Clair Solomon- she was complaining that the police treated 8 YEAR OLD protesters badly.How young can you be to join her union? She KNEW there were 8 year olds there and didn't try to sort it?Then we complain about boy soldiers in Africa!

No doubt the ones causing more trouble were the ones who complained they had to go to school because it's compulsory !!
