Exactly.'Orwell's 1984 was supposed to be a warning, not an instruction manual'. -

I haven't gone through the whole transcript, but surely there were more untruths being stated than just the number of responses to the condoc. We should scrutinize it carefully and protest / respond right away to debunk the BS.Originally posted by SantaClaus View PostIf anyone wants to strike up a conversation on Twitter with other MPs who were in the Finance Bill discussion, here is the text in full, with everything that was said:
http://www.publications.parliament.u.../140617s01.htm
House of Commons Public Bill Committee : Finance Bill (17 June 2014)
The other MPs, besides Swales and Elphick have been let off the hook far too easily. Thee were also some supportive MPs if I remember rightly.
They are not used to that, plus here's an opportunity to leverage our group power. Individually we are not much, but if we organize to work like little bees...
I know a few of the MPs were engaged today but the other ones also deserve some "love"

Yep and if they are following this thread, they have made a big assumption no other tax had been paid during the use of a tax planning scheme. Ass of u and me, i mean if you are going to argue don't do it based on assumptions jeeeez how unintelligent.Originally posted by lucozade View PostWe are being trolled on twitter by @fotgetfotdo

I think UKIP's core is pretty (moderate) libertarian, so they have a sceptical attitude to taxation and a pro-market mentality. However, Farage has said they are scrapping their flat tax proposal, which I consider to be a shame. Nonetheless, they may have something better in mind.Originally posted by z4thras View Post
Can't be worse than the Lib-dems and their vaunted promise to "abolish" IR35, with a Lib-dem peer now trying to defend the Treasury's response to the measure. At least they've showed their true colours when it comes to how they view contractors.
The attitude of the government (and the supposedly independent courts that belong to it) is quite clear: HMRC is above scrutiny, doesn't have to put anything resembling a serious argument together to defend its depredations and can get away with fabricating figures in ways that would make Enron's accountants blush, so much so that it could offer master courses in creative accounting.Last edited by Zero Liability; 18 June 2014, 22:14.Comment

Not only that but if your going to try abusing people online then don't leave yourself open in other locations found via Google.Originally posted by smalldog View PostYep and if they are following this thread, they have made a big assumption no other tax had been paid during the use of a tax planning scheme.

Probably the same troll that always shows up when we go outside of the forum. A particularly sad individual, who must really want someone to pay him some attention. And yes, I am also sure it is someone who turns up here.

I am aware the monpelier have contributed nothing to the ntrt fighting fund.
I am starting to feel let down by them. I the past I did feel supported by them - but I feel now they could do more.
I do have some background information on this I am not prepared to share publicly - I will only share with those who attend.
I intend to organize a demonstration at the montpelier office in the IoM. It will be totally peaceful - the aim is to generate publicity and to shame montpelier into making a contribution.
Please PM me with your email if there is any interest.
