What to do....Comment

Bit surprised that someone wouldn't want to be paid child benefit.
Of course in our line of work we don't 'need' it. But somehow we're all super concerned with paying as little tax as possible and keeping in control of as much of our earnings as we can. (Why else would you only pay yourself up to the higher tax limit?).
What then should feel wrong about claiming (tax funded) child benefit? You paid for it - it's yours.Comment

This whole change in the last 12 months or so that 'We're all in it together' and that companies paying taxes that you can technically find ways to reduce (ie. Starbucks/contractors) are in some way screwing everyone over, coupled with the final straw that the self-employed/cash culture/contractors/comedians are in some way comparable to child molesters/the scum of the earth is fooking joke. I'm surprised we haven't seen a Newsnight/Panorama expose of how Del Boy destroyed the economy!!!
Frankly I'm in it for myself & fook everyone else. Give me my child benefit back!What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment
