This video produced by HuffPo “Comedy” last year reveals all on “the perfect tax minimisation scheme”, utilising a “dedicated team of conscience-free accountants who each year loving nurture a crop of elegant tax returns on our behalf”. They would know… what with being based in Luxembourg in order to dodge tax.

Tom Harris bemoans the public’s attitude to politicians…
“Mr Oborne echoes the lazy, anti-politics whine we hear so often these days, all based on the absurd notion that politicians were once loved and only fell out of public favour during the expenses scandal. He should take a walk to the Strangers’ Bar. But not to sup with the patrons he seems to despise so much, dearie me, no; he should instead look at the paintings on the corridor outside the bar, which depict the devastating fire which consumed most of the Palace in 1834. And he should reflect on the fact that on that dramatic night, as the Commons went up in flames, a crowd gathered on the South Bank to clap and cheer.”
The thing that Dave needs to work out is which group is more likely to vote Conservative. Mad swivel-eyed loons or mad homosexuals wishing to get married.
And they huffed..and they puffed…and ..well…nothing really happened.
No one took any notice of them, as usual.
Who wants to pay any tax when it’s wasted on spongers and immigrants?
Spongers? Immigrants? Where? Just let me get my horse whip. The last immigrant in Much Ranting was driven back to his home village across the field.
Rot in Hell Chavez.
Indeed – sad times at the BBC as the their favourite ‘democrat’ traverses the Styx to his well earned place in Hades – it’ll be the usual:
Have Your Say Send In Your Thoughts
reserved for lefties, in contrast with the:
Have Your Say Send In Your Reactions
that they use for non-lefties, e.g. President Reagan.
Beeboid tossers!
I thought that avoiding paying tax was ok, and that it was only evading that was not allowed.
I am happy to spend time dashing out for tax free coffee with all my friends in town because I think it is legal.
Great day – Chavez dies, Ferguson loses the plot over a sending off, and the Rags are kicked out of the European Cup
We love immigrants because their vast numbers are good for the economy and help British workers find jobs and affordable housing.
I love immigrants because I can get a cheap nanny for Leo.
I do, ’cause it’s what we do
I do too, cause I don’t want to get done.
Presumably Guido will be relocating his operation back from St Kitts and Nevis in order to regularise his tax affairs?
Does Murdoch deduct PAYE or pay cash in hand?
He pays offshore if he can
No tax at all that way
Presumably the entire Labour Red Flag waving organisation and all their supporters will be sharing the wealth with the people of Rochdale, Blackburn etc in the interest of solidarity.
I note Camoron is supporting the utterly useless but very well paid David Nicholson in remaining in charge if our NHS even though this shameless wanker oversaw a hospital where hundreds of patients died of neglect !
So should Burnham and Johnson resign first to set an example?
The NHS should be inspected by the International Committee of the Red Cross.
My Dad went in for a day appointment and three months later died of C Diff. They did everything they could to deny he was suffering from C Diff, until we got his test results through a nurse in the family and told them ourselves he had C Diff. Then, only then did they isolate him. His death certificate does not mention C Diff.
In January my Mum died. She had cancer, The hospital gave her a drug that caused her legs to go black through burst blood vessels. They said it was to stop her fitting, She was also on steroids that would stop her fitting. This drug was unnecessary. She didn’t die of cancer, she had an heart attack. On her death certificate the doctor put cancer.
I hate the NHS. To me it is the most damaging aspect of British Life.
I think that there is a reason why many people (myself included) fear and avoid hospitals. The odds of getting an excellent hospital, with an excellent Doctor, with excellent support staff – are not good enough. If one of those drops the ball – you’re stuffed.
Unfortunately, the NHS ‘Invisibility Cloak’ is draped around all of its failures, and it is allowed to continually promote itself as some kind of modern, caring, efficient, super organisation.
The way a hospital runs its car park says it all really doesnt it…. They see their customers (us) as cash-cows. We pay the bills to keep them all in work…
It is reported that Nicholson is a member of Common Purpose. FFS !
Don’t tell the Daily Mail or the Sun then – they daren’t out all the common perpetraitors in our midst in every town hall in every police farce in every nook and cranny where the creeps exist – the DM & S only want to mention CP in connection with their rights V leveson – never mind the freedom of expression of the British Public eh?
I see that Mr Speaker Bercow, after allowing Labour urgent debates in the House on anything from the economy, to the West Coast rail franchise, to horse meat and anything that Labour ask, has REFUSED the request from two Staffordshire TORY MPs for a debate on the Stafford atrocities, the Trust going into administration and the Francis report.
If anyone ever doubted where this clown’s loyalties lie.
If that is true then it is an utter disgrace.
I do not respect Mr Bercow.
Tut tut, his serjeants at arms must have threatened to deck him on Sir David Nicholson’s orders or some Humphrey.
thousands died, not hundreds.
We made a fortune. We ‘sponsor’ a number of MPs. The two things are entirely none of the public’s business.
strange thing death…hair is dead….but it exists to give us warmth.
strange thing death.
Hope to heaven that you never have bad accident, then you’ll find out how good the NHS is. Quite possibly you might get out alive but there again you may well be short of few organs (all in the best possible cause) y’know. There again you may well contract a fatal disease.
it pays to have good health.
accidents can be avoided by having a crisis proof life.
but then it all requires discipline and dedicated effort.
nothing worthwhile is easy.
everyone has a different idea of the concept of “specialness”.
but why.
No fan of the company in the vid or their products, but that ‘comedy’ effort was as funny as cancer. Actually, somewhat offensive.
Mehdi affect ?
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
What the fuck is going on with Andy Burnham and Alan Johnson over Stafford Hospital. Why have neither of them appeared before the Health Care Select Committee? Why are they being allowed to keep quiet? Why is the coalition not having a go at labour?
It all stinks! Where do Tom Watson and John Mann stand over the Stafford deaths? Oh so quiet the hypocritical duo.
Labour the party of death.
No impunity.
Tom Watson is indirectly implicated in these thousands of deaths in the National Death Service.
I hold no writ for Watson, but at least he had the courage to put the child abuse matters in the public domain. I have heard remarkably little from any other MP on that topic. What I find bizarre is how quiet the most local MPs are on the North Staffs matter. The likes of David Kidney and Bill Cash almost seem to have been knobbled. And for the idiots out there – Watsons constituency is in West Midlands now, although historically in (South) Staffs.
Soon all these minor issues will be dealt with by our secret courts and you little people need be troubled no more.
Just get inside the truck now.
Of course you’re going on holiday, to the Potteries.
Oh come off it the secret courts are only there to stop paying off people who we have evidence to convince a judge they should have been life imprisoned I’d say. Otherwise, we’ll still dish out the dosh. We’re not talking criminal trials here. I know they didn’t get one, but some m*****f*****rs don’t deserve one and its these who should not be given £100,000s. Or we can set up another school of jihad, hey hey hey.
Behind the secret court stuff is a move to protect all the criminal erring MP’s from all 3 major parties who have been caught out and the move also is to hide all the legal fraternity from being prosecuted for their crimes against the British public.
They set the courts up to protect themselves – IT AINT FUCKING ROCKET SCIENCE.
Envy of the world.
As to your comment. It’s just in a stupid trust that is saddled with way too much glitz and debt, with bonuses for breaking even. Debt leading to death.
You won’t get any argument from us. We look after patients’ interests.
Unions only look after Unions interests, get it right.
What’s the matter Guido? Are the interesting stories drying up now you work for Murdoch? Or are you hoping you can save them till Sunday?
This is what happens when Guido leaves an (unpaid) intern to manage the site whilst off drinking the profits.
Well, its pretty dull.
I wonder how much less keen folks are to bare their soul to Greedo, now that he apparently sells the stories elsewhere.
Her twitter is Hackneyed-Abbott
political opinions she uses so often as to be trite, dull, and stereotyped.
No path thru’ her “thicket”,if i,ve understood properly!!!!
The worse instance of open racism I have ever personally seen in Hackney involved West Indians abusing some Roma opposite the Tescos at Seven Sisters.
Is Seven Sisters an area that has been enriched? If so I bet you stood out like a sore thumb!
Yes it’s absolutely lovely living in enriched by immigrants cesspit UK.
Unfortunately the many Roma who had planned to come are currently held up as their transport has been eaten.
In the 80′s it was Turks and Cypriots.
I’m sure they’ve sold their stores and flats and moved on up by now.
Who’s moved in ?
Squatting, benefit demanding, Roma.
It may have been Turks and Cypriots – but at least the vast majority of them integrated and did something useful and helpful to the country, like you mentioned, opened “their stores”, rather than squat and did bugger all except wander along to collect the giro like those who shall remain purdahed.
Auction entry to the U.K. Limit numbers to 25K and over time see what the profit maximising value is.
Every foreigner in the country to be insured against going to prison. Reciprocal agreement with EU(SSR) countries to pay for FN jail costs. No insurance, no entry.
A left turn will suffice as long as they fall into the sea off Southend.
Off Beachy Head would (a) provide us with some decent entertainment and (b) be more effective. Any suggestions as to whom we should start with? Can somebody please call a Hackney Cab for our first “volunteer”.
Perhaps they are all leaving the HuffPo because they’re fed up with being called animal-like kuffar or kaffir or WTF the word is!
Okay…whilst this might not portray HuffPo in the best light is this really pertinent or interesting to this stite?
I know as a left wing intellectual you like your political thoughts pre-sanctioned by a committee of unisex suited, politburo members, but here its a little bit ….more free thinking ?
If its not to your Pravda propagandist taste, don’t feel you need to stay.
Are you a raging leftie Cockney? We all agree there is a lot wrong wiv this “stite” of Ingerland what we ‘ad ‘oped Camerloon would ‘of’ at least attempted to fix. Silly us.
Shurely shome mishtake.
While Guidos company pays tax in Nevis
Pull the other one Geedo
It’s hard for those whose brain has gone a bit ripe, so let’s do it in easy stages.
1. Tax is theft, and the stolen money is largely misused, e.g. to subsidise MPs’ booze and the comfortable life of religious extremists. (A caricature of the situation but not without truth.)
2. Tax avoidance is therefore morally justified, and also legal.
3. The Huffington Post avoids tax thanks to its offshore status. This is OK.
4. The Huffington Post mocks others who avoid tax. This is hypocritical.
5. Guido avoids tax thanks to his offshore status. This is OK.
6. Guido mocks the Huffington Post for mocking others who avoid tax. This is also OK because he is not mocking the HP for avoiding tax, but for being hypocritical.
There, you see? Clear as gold.
1. Lefties are thick.
2. None needed, see 1.
10 PRINT “Lefties are thick”
20 GOTO 10
Lol…
Between myself and Learned Hand, telling everyone a hundred fuckin’ years ago it already seems like, that you have no moral duty to pay penny-one more to the taxman than is absolutely necessary, you’d think some people would understand the difference between tax avoidance and tax evasion by now. But N-O-O-O-O! Thicker than pigshit! That, or addicted to spreading bullshit! Or both, come to that!
And I mock Guido for being hypocritical
Simples
You are arrogant and dumb
You know we’d love to support your comment. But even here we can’t see how Guido is hypocritical.
Can you please explain further?
This is a funny one from January, which should be aired:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2013/jan/14/linking-offshore-wind-farms-to-grid
PAC was warning that transmission lines from offshore windfarms needed to get the generated power back to the grid may cost GBP 17bn and significantly increase eletricity bills.
Now: The WTF aspect. Did they really go ahead and build a load of windfarms off shore and only worry about the getting power back to shore once the farms were completed ?
This stinks of Huhne.
The idea was that there would be a fleet of oil tankers which would run on batteries which they would top up directly at the wind farm itself.
Even better, there’s a HV DC cable planned to go from Scotland around by the Isle of Man,down the Irish sea into Liverpool Bay by the wind-farms, up the spine of Wirral Peninsula and across the Dee to Flint Power station that’s where it will connect to the grid, cost to us saps, Iv’e no idea.
You right wingers are stupid. Each turbine will have a plug socket at the bottom, citizens can go and plug in and use the electricity whenever they need it.
Unless it is not windy. Or too windy.
What about the Windmills out at sea , will they provide an extension lead from them on dry land?.
The above article was about the ones at sea, which is precisely my point.
It sounds very much like they are built, sometimes turning and generating, but the power is only available to fish at present.
Not that there are many fish left with the CFP being what it is.
Liverpool bay is filling up with windmills, another lot is going up now on the Welsh side and another 70odd to be built across the top of Wirral about 5 miles in the bay, they are live and operating, they have service boats going out to them everyday, if they build anymore they will end up in the Lennox gas field a bit further out, the thing you won’t get told about is the “condensate” they tanker off everyday.
Ok – gotcha.
If there is no sign of a 5 mile long power cable coming back to shore, those windmills will be producing power for fish.
It may be ‘foolish’ to assume that such a cable has been connected just yet. But the windmills look nice, and are being well maintained though.
The Welsh ones, the cables comes ashore around Prestatyn and link into the grid, the ones that are in the bay opposite the Wirral shore the cables land at Leasowe and pick up the grid there.
Think you have all missed the point really, they are our new air defence sytem to bring down hot air balloons.
Notice how the windmill loving freaks are scraping the barrel – they have an army of nutters running around getting letters and article in the msm stating of windmills
” … but theyr’e nice looking …”
How desperate are the freaks and their dupes – the fecking things produce feck all electricity … but hey they look nice … DOHHHHH!!!
17billion for a bit of “twin and earth” cable,,seems a little steep!!!!
This guy just does not get it, the BofE and all the other Hunts in politics or the City just DO NOT give a f*ck about the little people !!!!!!!

The more tax paid by companies, the higher the end user cost of the products they supply. What the idiotic ‘stigmatise tax avoidance’ crowd are basically asking for, is higher prices for end users, ie: themselves.
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/revealed-murdochs-tax-holiday-1583846.html
Since Tax funds the state and we’re for a smaller state. Being extorted less is not seen as a good thing.
The left thinks that the state can spend money better than the people who went to the trouble of earning it can… When they avoid tax you can accuse them of hypocrisy.
It is hypocrisy we are laughing at the lefties, not the very sensible idea of avoiding feeding the financial metastatic cancer that is the state.
Apparently you have forgotten about those paragons of virtue, the capitalist
banks, which have soaked up ten of billions of our tax payers cash
And they were not even paying much tax as well – when they were “profitable”!
Try and get a pair of specs …
Where did the ‘too big to fail’ mantra come from and why were the banks, who were too stupid and reckless to manage their affairs correctly, rewarded by the state for their mismanagement? Step forward corporatism and take a bow, along with it’s biggest friend, Gordon Brown.
What about Ordinto Investments a vehicle used for decades out of the Caymans Rupee?

It is time to head for the exit, before the EU pushes the remaining few with talent here out.
We might have a few more backers for that idea. Leave, and the city can go back to its old ways. I suggest we cultivate this feeling until they have helped the exit.
The EU vs. the city. Once the city has seen its common enemy, they will work together.
The “City of London Corporation” is actually an entity of its own – it is basically the centre of the worlds money laundering. The ruse is to ‘make(the public)believe’ that it works for them the public when it does not.

The following demonstrates the effect of the UKIP (or Conservative) vote split in the South West.
If the Eastleigh by-election result was repeated over the South West in a GE tomorrow, with the following gains / losses in each constituency:
The 2013 GE would result in the following seats changing:
The picture changes as follows:
2010 | 2013 | Diff ----------------------- Con : 36 | 23 | -13 Lab : 4 | 11 | +7 LD : 15 | 14 | -1 UKIP: 0 | 7 | +7This would suggest that of the SE, E, and SW of England, UKIP has the highest chance of picking up seats in the SW with a repeat performance of Eastleigh in all constituencies.
Combining previous for East England using same assumptions, that could put UKIP in a 10 seat position across those three regions.

In Spanish-language countries, General Motors couldn’t sell Chevrolet Novas– “chevy no va.”
True story. Not a terribly funny one, but true. Sort of like my films– they weren’t terribly funny either, though the word “terrible” would arise from time to time in many reviews.

More lasagne anyone ?
We need the NHS cancer treatment to be as good as Cuba’s….look how well Chavez is doing…er…wait a mo’…
The European Union is a wonderful thing don’t you think?
Lots of attention is directed towards Golden Dawn, but it is Syriza who have been much more direct and aggressive:

Syriza, the extreme left, are gaining in popularity over New Democracy, Pasok are all but dead in the water now following austerity.
What can be seen unfolding in Greece now is a ‘strategy of tension’. The far right are being blamed, but on closer inspection it is the state acting directly against its own people, but blaming the right in some cases:

The military will support whichever party are most in line with their interests, and have stated they will not get involved with any insurrection.

Note in the above video’s the Turkish flag was being burned, as well as the EU flag.
The humiliation of the Greco-Turkish war (1919-1922) is being re-propagandized at present.
That is not a healthy development.
Especially as Greece and Turkey are in direct competition at present over securing production rights on the recently discovered (2010) East Med oil and gas reserves.
Don’t you ever get any sleep, dear?
I’d celebrate if Patricia Hewitt died. She was health secretary during the first two years of the Stafford scandal. Now she’s making lots of money from her various consultancy roles. I hope she dies of cancer.
Surely inanition, slowly with reduced provision of water would be more fitting.
Her pathetic husband of a judge might issue you a writ for that comment!!!
Average house price data for 2012 Q4 published soon.
In the mean time, this is what has been happening to average real UK house prices according to Nationwide…

Anyone who purchased in 2007 is likely looking at serious negative equity now.
Incidentally, a 25% loss in value will require a 33% rise in order to get back to flat, ignoring inflation.
Trouble is that house prices were going bananas from the late nineties — half the problem now is that a correction should have happened as early as 2004-2005. If it had happened then, it would have been painful — I would say that prices now are up to 100 per cent what they should be. Government held down interest rates to protect mortgage holders for ten plus years, but the bubble must burst — fatally rather than painfully, the question is when, not if… PS was one of the reasons for mass immigration to keep demand for housing stock high?
Boring and pointless.
I think the reason the UK welcomed migrants were more for the following reasons:
i) Ideology at the time (collectivist multikulti)
ii) Cementing relationships with certain foreign countries
iii) Increasing the tax base
- Pensions and other unfunded state liabilities are the big elephant in the room, and the demographic projections as baby boomer generation retired were pointing to national insolvency
iv) Helping to reduce the cost of certain sections of the labor force through competition.
There may have also been desire to use the increase of migrants as reason to expand the size of government as well under the Labour administration.
Agree with you fully. Greenspan triggered the credit bubble with low Fed rates, and similar happened in Europe when the Euro was forged. Brown’s ‘light touch’ regulation introduced in 1997 sealed the deal. It is from about that time that the requirements for lending went out the window and things started getting silly.
Would have been better for correction in 2000/2001 when the mini recession occurred as dot com boom ended, but alas that didn’t happen.
Who gives a fuck about “house prices” ? Have you learned nothing over the past few years ? House prices are bollox and no more a sign of your wealth than a steaming pile of shite. Let me explain for your idiotic mind, when your house goes up in value, so does everyone elses, now can you work out what that actually means ?????
Those with a mortgage tied to one purchased near the high will care somewhat, as they are now caught in a negative equity trap.
The house price increase was a reflection of debt being accumulated not wealth being created. It was also showing where inflation at the time was being hidden in the economy, and also laid bare the credit bubble which was forcing many assets at the time up.
Now, my idiotic mind actually knew all of that at the time, which is why I did not bother to get involved with it preferring Gold and for a time equities.
As this credit bubble deflates, which it is doing now, do you know what is going to happen next ?
Chavez cerainly enrinched himself on the back of his people over the years, what possible connection could he have had with Denis McShane ??
Honour amongst thieves?
Mark Thatcher and Jeffrey Archer are two other examples of thieving knuts.
Something happened…like shutting down media outlets that disagreed with him?
Carackers claim Chavezs cancer was the fault f America.
No not at all, just too many cigs.
Rest in Piss.
I am sure he was a lovely man in many ways – his people seemed to love him
Try not to post tomorrow, Steve.
Thanks.
Now, THAT would be a treat !!!!
God willing, that cancerous colon will do for him before dawn (GMT).
I wonder how long I can last without ageing any more, dear.
Yes, Hugo was a wonderful man who often sent me food parcels. Totally inedible they were but it is the thought that counts.
Why is Phil Collins dressed as a goblin?
Why are you dressed as The Marmite Monster, you fat slag?
I wonder what she’ll post when Margret Thatcher passes away?
Huge reefer. Mushy peas. Horse bubbling nicely.
Actually that’s a good point…the Guardianistas(inc BBC) are already in “Evita” mode(without seeing the irony of THAT) and almost on the brink of demanding full state mourning and decrying any perosn who they term “right wing scum” for daring to challenge Chavez’s deeds and memory and accusing them of being “unfeeling bastards” yet they see no contradiction in terms by rejoicing in the future death of Thatcher….but then again that socialists for you
you scvmbag Abbot! Go rot in hell with your scvmbag chum Chavez!
Who morns a tyrant?
Buy me because, if you don’t, nothing will change.
Melanie Phillips in on QT this week.
Gawd help us from that old duplicitous bat – do clock a copy of her duplicitous bilge in the D Mail of Mon 25th Feb – for some future references. Her days of spinning bull5hit are nearing an end.
Can’t be arsed to read her shite. QT still worth a watch, I suppose.
What exactly do you blow, dear?
They’re all caracas in Venezuela.
With Cameron’s backing, what could he be lacking?

Oh that caring bbc, how they care about refugees, how they care about the poor in the third world, how they care about the folk in privately run old peoples homes, how they care about those on the dole receiving free money, how they care about asylum seekers getting all they need, how they care about the families of illegals. But they don’t care about the deaths in the NHS because that would be to admit something is rotten on the sacred golden territory of socialism.
How long ago was the deaths at Mid Staffs talked about on this site alone? How many investigations has the caring bbc done into it?

bbc qt is in Dover tomorrow. Panel: Diane James (#UKIP), Stephen Twigg (Labour – Education), Bob Crow (RMT), Melanie Phillips (Daily Mail).
Stone the Crows me old mucker! Hope he’s calling for more overtime pay, we can hold everyone to ransom.
Very off topic, of course, but a quick glance at the Media Reader panel opposite gave me “SamCams’ Red Nose Day WG | BBC”
For a moment there, I was convinced she’d found some useful employment.
And just what do you do for a living?
Pimp whores. Why?
