Capital Summertime Ball 2024

From the 'Times':-

"Chris Moyles, the Radio 1 presenter, invested in an aggressive tax avoidance scheme that was used by 500 wealthy people to try to deny the Treasury £200 million.

The Rushmore strategy was described by a government minister as “highly abusive” and “a scam”, and was shut down by the Treasury in 2009 before investors could claim tax relief.

Overdue documents filed online show that Mr Moyles was a director of Romangate Ltd, a company involved in the scheme".

It is not known how much was invested. :*

Tax Tax Tax blah blah blah. So what? I'm a tax avoider. I'm part of a scheme thousands upon thousands of people use every year.

It's called being an unemployed student xD

That isn't the point. The more you earn, the more you pay. At least, that is how it is supposed to be. found out today that barclays only pays one percent tax. No wonder this country is such a mess.
