Brown envelopes incoming?
Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market. -
HMRC are in the wrong to be claiming that contractors using standard business methodology to operate Limited Companies are evading tax. They are not wrong for chasing people who used loan schemes and other tax evasion vehicles. I have a problem with the former and not the latter.
Using <mod snip> is harsh and this post should not stay up. People have been banned for starring swear words in the past on this forum.
If you're upset because you used loan schemes and offshore tax evasion vehicles then suck it up and be an adult. You were in the wrong and made a mistake. Too many on this forum moaning at being caught for doing wrong and taken to trial years later. It's your own fault, as an adult, and you know it. -

I will accept the starring and will remove.
You are, however, incorrect in berating DOND regarding Loan Charge whinges. That ship has long since sailed and DOND is not complaining about those.
MSCP and fee-payer attacks are the cause of his ire these days - I’m surprised that you’re not aware of this."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."

You need to learn and understand the difference between 'tax evasion' and 'tax avoidance.' Until you do understand, imho, you're not qualified to debate the issue.Originally posted by agentzero View PostHMRC are in the wrong to be claiming that contractors using standard business methodology to operate Limited Companies are evading tax.
