Oh Dear....
Kerridge was asked whether he agreed that McDonald’s income had been correctly reported on the employment pages as employment income, to which he replied it “had to be returned somewhere”.
HMRC appears to have submitted a thorough and comprehensive case to the FTT, while Kerridge seemingly relied on a single argument based on an incorrect reading of the legislation. All in all, an easy win for HMRC.

Jesus, what a cluster f**k that was. They had some arrogance going to FTT with that argument. I'm as dumb as they come and I can't see for one minute how that was going to wash. Surely that argument has been tested multiple times in the past. If he was right then every PSC will have been doing it wrong.
Interesting point though. If a director is considered an employee for RTI and how can we be exempt from NMW etc? Sounds like they aren't applying the same decision to all aspects of a director.
A good resource to point newbies to when they don't want to learn how to run their companies though.Last edited by northernladuk; 30 June 2024, 20:46.'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!!Comment

Also, are you telling me that this happened for years and at no point did he inform his client that he needed to set up payroll - as a minimum.Comment
