Title: Tax Dodgers
Post by: tonybloke on November 25, 2010, 18:28:36
Dear friends,

Have a look at this:
http://www.38degrees.org.uk/osborne-pay-your-taxes

I've just signed a petition asking George Osborne to pay his fair share of taxes. It turns out he's using "legal" loopholes to get out of paying £1.6million in tax. He says "we're all in this together" so if we are, shouldn't he be paying his fair share of tax?

The more of us take part, the stronger the message will be - click here to sign the petition:

Thanks,
Tony

If you're poor or middling and find ways to avoid paying tax it's called tax evasion and it's a criminal offence but if you are extremely wealthy and can employ an accountant to exploit the legal anomalies which provide loopholes, it's tax avoidance. That's OK plus you're a clever dick!  My god! 1.6 million in tax saved. If I had enough to pay that kind of tax I'd be happy to do so.

I've signed.

Me too.

I've never in my life earned a fraction of what he's dodging.

And they wonder why students and schoolchildren are rioting on the streets....

......... And have you seen how our children are being treated by the police?
'Kettling' them (Forcefully corralling them) for hours and hours without water or toilet access. Parents looking for their kids were turned away.
Then the police charged at them with horses without regard for their safety:.......

You may find the evidence rather disturbing.... Don't watch if you are easily upset, but DO watch if you want to see how they treat our kids.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgxwTF-qeAo&feature=player_embedded

We'll all be joining them on the streets soon enough if this continues..

This is a government which says it is all about fairness. I fail to see what is fair about the rich copping out of paying their whack. After all we are all forced to pay that supremely unfair tax VAT which discriminates exponentially the lower your income. We need a major reform of the tax laws.

Signed! If I had my way the evil fascist parasite would be divested of his riches and given a 10 year stretch in a scummy suburban bedsit on £65 a week. Or a large treadmill supplying the national grid..
