I'd imagine if the tax system was implemented they'd use the same tactic

2019-10-09 16:03:28 UTC  

People do lots to avoid tax

2019-10-09 16:03:39 UTC  

And when they're caught out? @Joshu

2019-10-09 16:03:42 UTC  

That's a big bill!!

2019-10-09 16:03:52 UTC  

Tax avoidance

2019-10-09 16:03:55 UTC  

Is not evation

2019-10-09 16:03:57 UTC  

One is legal

2019-10-09 16:03:59 UTC  

One is not

2019-10-09 16:04:05 UTC  

One is unlawful

2019-10-09 16:04:11 UTC  

One is illegal

2019-10-09 16:04:17 UTC  

No

2019-10-09 16:04:22 UTC  

One is legal one is not

2019-10-09 16:04:36 UTC  

Avoidance is legally avoiding tax using loopholes

2019-10-09 16:04:51 UTC  

Evasion is doing it illegally

2019-10-09 16:05:03 UTC  

*Evasion

2019-10-09 16:05:26 UTC  

Yeah changed it

2019-10-09 16:05:39 UTC  

For example

2019-10-09 16:05:39 UTC  

I think Evasion is not reporting taxable things accurately

2019-10-09 16:05:56 UTC  

I own a Ltd company, I earn minimum wage but am payed dividends etc etc

2019-10-09 16:05:59 UTC  

That's avoidance

2019-10-09 16:06:02 UTC  

Okay fair enough you're right

2019-10-09 16:06:11 UTC  

You pay less tax than normal through different routes

2019-10-09 16:07:45 UTC  

There are whole accountancy firm which deal with contractors who do exactly that

2019-10-09 16:08:00 UTC  

Even claiming a home office and claiming VAT back on shit like TP

2019-10-09 16:11:03 UTC  

Good one for all

2019-10-09 16:11:26 UTC  

If you don't get the full 45p per mile for own car milage at work

2019-10-09 16:11:37 UTC  

The whole "muhhtaxevasion" thing is a bit of a unicorn

2019-10-09 16:11:37 UTC  

Claim the excess back on you self assessment

2019-10-09 16:11:54 UTC  

I mean only worth if you do alot of miles though

2019-10-09 16:11:59 UTC  

You need to keep records

2019-10-09 16:12:27 UTC  

tbh all of this is a bit of a house of cards

2019-10-09 16:12:45 UTC  

all you need to do is misread 1 law and you can get a massive tax bill

2019-10-09 16:13:11 UTC  

That's what tax advisors are for

2019-10-09 16:13:16 UTC  

They make good money

2019-10-09 16:13:22 UTC  

If you need tax advisors then the tax system is too complicated

2019-10-09 16:13:24 UTC  

@Dubdogelmo not if you don't pay any taxes <:thinkgon:560211224923734026>

2019-10-09 16:13:53 UTC  

<:BIGBRAIN:501101491428392991>

2019-10-09 16:14:11 UTC  

I'll bear that advise in mind

2019-10-09 16:15:16 UTC  

Who cares about BAFTAs?

2019-10-09 16:17:31 UTC  

Personally looking forward to contracting
