Budget 2012

[d000hg]

Houses bought by limited companies to pay stamp duty of 15% - does that mean that BTL via Ltds is now a no-no?

That was only on £2m+ properties.

[Sysman]

Here's a hint, small companies don't hire contractors on several £hundred per day. A boss with 2 employees on £15k each... small shop or a garage maybe.

But in addition, there are a massive number of 1-man businesses who are NOT contractors so this may be aimed at them.

The small shop or garage are going to have goods included in their turnover so this rule will make a company unattractive (suicidal, surely? Ed.). Such folks were traditionally self-employed anyway, at least until the low CT introduced a few years ago made going Ltd attractive for them.

I guess, but even in that case 30K out of 77K turnover is not going to leave you much margin to live on....

house above the shop & all the out of date Tizer you can drink, jobs a good un.

Actually if you subtract housing, transport, Energy, insurances then you don't actually need that much.

[MrRobin]

Milliband on top form.

Rubbish! All politics and no economics. He's such a bore and so feeble. What policies and tax changes would Labour have made?

[AtW]

No tax relief for fully automatic firearms owners again!

Ok Tory boy calm down.

Nice to see them supporting business but in another country:


Budget 2012: Are you better or worse off now? here?s the bottomline - Times Of India

Ok Tory boy calm down.

Come on Russell, of the most cock knobbing of cock knobbers, he is the most proficient of them. Honestly, Labour have utterly no chance of winning with him at the helm. Thank ****


He is woeful; like Mark waugh, not even the best in his family, unlike Mark Waugh, not that good. He really is a turd and the country would genuinely got to the tulip tip if him and that idiot Balls got involved with anything to do with the countries finances

Where did I say he should run the company? I was talking about his response he ridiculed the budget and was quite funny too. He is a politician not a economist so he is going to try and score points, which he did and scored many.
