Lol nope not really. So far I am yet to see something that is actually cheating or abnormal to normal behaviour.
The Phillip green story ended with nothing, the current one suggests he is cheating by taking dividends instead of wages..... Quick, someone call in the firing squad lol

Fantastic - people who know how to make money ruling the country! No wonder we always prosper unde the tories!.. Unlike Liebour who are only in it to line their own pockets at the expense of the tax payer - look at whose MP's were taking the pis$ most with the expenses..

What a dire substanceless program that was, and little biased perhaps.

Using dividends as part of wifey's wage is nothing new. Its used in countless small to medium businesses across the nation. This is why wifey shouldn't get the child benefits anymore.

And nothing on Tony Blairs own little tax avoidance schemes.

Anyhoo IHT is a tax well below the belt anyway - wish we'd done more to avoid it. Lessons learnt, this time around I'll make sure of it.

Its not about how much money you have; its about how good your IFA is

I think the whole programs aim was to illustrate how stupidly short sighted your average labour voter is in fact , otherwise theyd be in these peoples position

and to give the jorno , a trip to the sunshine

Labour had over 10 years to sort that $hite out and left it alone, they are just as bad.

Quick Pete this thread is taking on water..... Bail bail bail.

Pretty empty program all in all I have to say. Shame on Osbournes father for starting a trust fund for his children, would not catch Labour promoting child trust funds!

For a grass roots Labour Politician he's not that bad. But seriously, knowing his background would you let him loose on the country's accounts?

Its akin to a father giving their teenage child his credit card and pin number.

Just wondering if the labour peers who lied about their expenses big time actually paid tax on this illicit income? dl

I have little doubt that you will be taking notes throughout that programme in order to save paying any more tax than you have to since you keep tellingl how how very rich you are too.
