      In short, it is completely unethical trick to gain votes from low income, jobless and benefits claiming people.

            Analysis on Sky etc is that the tax take will not increase by £1.1bn as predicted - much less due to people rearranging their affairs, moving out, etc

              Absolutely.

              Most of the high fliers have already started making arrangements when it was first proposed last year.

              Businesses and high earners will eventually find safer nests somewhere else . But earning an extra billion at the expense of several billions, doesnt make sense at all.

                It's political gesture, not financial - everything else is designed to defer taxes until when Cons Govt takes over and them blame mess on them.

                Any company director that would be following such strategy would not be doing his duty and can (at least should) be prosecuted.

                  How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                      Why your complete statement doesnt make any sense?

                      What do you mean by following such strategy ? What strategy you are talking about?
