It's all a bit hypocritical.
I'm all for limiting my tax legally, so have no issue with others doing the same. I mean, how many of us would ever volunteer to pay more tax than we need to?
And for the record, I never voted for Blair and can't stand the guy so I'm not defending him as an individual any more than I would defend Reese-Mogg, but they are (I assume) following the tax law so this really is just about jealousy.I am what I drink, and I'm a bitter manComment

So while I agree with most of your comment and that jealously certainly plays a part, there is also a large element of people genuinely perceiving it as duplicitous and hypocritical. To publicly go on record criticising a specific avoidance mechanism and then use it, and say "I followed the law" in your defence is pretty embarrassing. Especially when you were PM for quite a few years and didn't do anything about it.
It would be like someone here saying that taking earnings via dividends is morally reprehensible and then doing it anyway. Put your money where your mouth is if you want to be seen as having integrity.Last edited by d000hg; 7 October 2021, 10:13.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

Taking advantage of an ISA is hardly controversial.

And pre-IR35 you simply took all your income as a salary?"If you didn't do anything that wasn't good for you it would be a very dull life. What are you gonna do? Everything that is pleasant in life is dangerous."
