It's all the Eastern Europeans fault

[Zero Liability]

Some things never change

Yup, still the same rapacious bastards trying to make so-called tax avoiders out to be the bad guys, for not handing them as much loot as they'd like when they come looking for pennies due to their out of control spending addiction.

I'd like to remind the dumbed down nation that these so called tax avoiders, like any other small business, are also not receiving their fair share of:

(1) Private medical insurance (PMI)
(2) Occupational sick pay
(3) Redundancy pay
(4) Bonuses
(5) Holidays
(6) Employer supported pensions
(7) Statutory employment rights
(8) Childcare vouchers
(9) Share schemes
(10) Life assurance
(11) Critical illness insurance
(12) Employee assistance plan
(13) Dental insurance

(14) Indemnity against their cock ups (unless they pay for their own insurance)

Agreed - he shouldn't single out the East Europeans, like all the Jafa's, Safa's and Kiwis here many are just trying to maximise their earnings before they go home and hopefully build that dacha in the forest.

The big difference being, of course, that all Antipodeans sign a waiver to any rights to live off the state while they're here as a condition of their working holiday visas, and that going home for most of them is a definite term of the visa.
Oh, and that there are just as many Brits down under taking all the fruit-picking jobs

Very true, but one should always remember the institutionalised racism inherent in any type of socialism. As these people are East European (aka 'Slavs' or ‘untermenchen’ in the language of socialism), whatever they do can only be perceived as wrong.

The world has not really advanced in the last 60 odd years when a european Chancellor gets up to the podium and spouts this extremist cr4p to his followers.

What does grate though, is the way this government have used the EE's to keep wages down in the UK, even the MPC mention it in the monthly BoE report, yet at the same time dont acknowlegde the inflationary pressures its having on housing here.

The Jafa's (aussies) have been doing it for years.

Never NL's fault...ever

"The tax rate rise for small firms was needed to counter East European scams, Chancellor Gordon Brown has said.

Mr Brown said East European workers were being encouraged to register themselves as companies to avoid paying income tax when they arrived in the UK"

Well, it was the same cnut that encouraged people to incorporate.

It was also the same cnut that said "I believe in encouraging small business".

It's sad to see the atrophied BBC reporters regurgitate only what their paymaster tell them to. Anyone that is not in the employment of big business is not paying their "fair" share of tax.

(13) Dental insurance

£156b of debt hidden from the UK plc books and any other "investment" that cannot go on PFI is rejected by guppy otherwise he has to move the goalposts to his "golden rule".

The duplicity of these arrogant cnuts is simply unbelievable. Eastern Europeans could not do any wrong, welcome with open arms and god forbid you were caught uttering the words "jobs" "they" "them" "taking" in the same sentance.

Now, they are the convenient dumping ground of political deckchair arrangements on the Titanic by this paradoxically bankrupt bunch of hypocrites.

Rant of the week !

The tax rate rise for small firms was needed to counter East European scams, Chancellor Gordon Brown has said.

Mr Brown said East European workers were being encouraged to register themselves as companies to avoid paying income tax when they arrived in the UK.

"It is a problem that every country faces but it is a problem that we are going to deal with," he told MPs.

"We have had a particular issue that we have had to deal with. We have had individuals artificially incorporating as companies for purely taxation purposes.

"One of the problems that we have faced - and had to act upon - is that people who are coming to work in this country are being encouraged to form and work through managed services companies even before they come into this country.

"We face the prospect of schemes that have been marketed right across Eastern Europe encouraging people to set up companies purely for the purposes of avoiding taxation."
