The case for the prosecution: -
Originally posted by Fred Bloggs View PostSlam dunk for the self employed schemes then?
Likewise for the employed schemes, I assume that the learned gentlemen who consider these things will conclude that sprinkling magic pixie dust on your wages by giving them to someone in the IoM who then lends you the same money back again will conclude that if it still quacks and walks like a duck then the pixie dust hasn't worked?Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostThe question is where does the liability fall if the magic pixie dust does not work.Originally posted by Fred Bloggs View PostOn the duck.Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostDoes the Duck live in the IoM or in the UK?Originally posted by Dylan View PostDepends who is asking
Originally posted by Fred Bloggs View PostThe duck was given to you in the UK in return for pottering around and doing a few bits and bobs, as you do. But then you sprinkled the pixie dust on it and sent it to the nice man in the IoM who then sent you in return a couple of legs, two breasts, two wings and a carcass back, on loan. Snag is the because the pixie dust didn't work, you still have a duck and ducks are taxed.Originally posted by ChimpMaster View PostI didn't realise this thread was in General.Originally posted by Fred Bloggs View PostJust search/paste "money" for "duck" eh?Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostI am going to give now since FB is either a politician or a tax advisor. No straight answers to a straight question.Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostThey can get money from other employers that used this scheme. But who cares? They have UNLIMITED resources to throw at this. Then are already badly down on NTRT.
Retrospective legislation is quite legal. And even if they weren't, then its the balance outstanding as at 2019 that counts. Of course, the burden falls on the employer(thats the IOM duck for Fred "thicko" bloggs.Originally posted by Fred Bloggs View PostA little harsh there, I feel, BP.Comment

Personally I am upset there was no ban for posting nonsense in professional forums. You cannot answer a straight question.
The type of coder who when called a big pr1ck (which I should think is very frequently) assumes it is composition when inheritance is clearly meant.Comment
