Pro-business Tory Scum are fooking over contractors far and beyond what anti-business New Liebor ever did or ever hoped to achieve?

They're pro-business not pro-expensive-temp.

If enforcing IR35 in a new way has dealt with the issue of using Ltds as PSC, then why did they increase dividends tax by 25%???

To stop fat-cat (or fat-squirrel) directors earning millions and getting big tax-cuts compared to their workers

So that's supposed to be pro-business?

What this got to do with directors anyway, tax is on business owners

Yup, offshore trust or Ltd owning UK Ltd shares won't pay a dime on tax - so this extra tax is on honest mugs who live in UK and choose to play honestly

Pro business doesn't have to mean lucrative tax breaks for the rich. That's the Labour view of a Tory government, that all they do is help the rich. Are your socialist roots showing again?

What tax breaks??? If company is paying corp tax that should be recognized in the dividends tax, which is levied on same money. It's double taxation in the first place, at least taking paid into account would be fair option - pound for pound paid at least.

Cons failed to drop tax back to 40% that th ey said was right level, instead they increased fivudeends tax so thst it became at worse level than under 50% Liebir.

The rich pay dividends to offshore holding companies, they are not affected.

This betrayal will cost Tory Scum

If you weren't aware of them then you haven't lost out

Spouting terms like "double taxation" is misleading. If I tax you 10%, then 10% again on what's left that's double taxation. But that's better than being taxed once at 20%... so the fact it's double taxation alone is meaningless.

Get on with your coding and hire someone to manage the business side of things for you. Or wait until Theresa's race to the bottom.

Time to leave the UK and become resident of the Isle of Man I think.
