Cable Forum - Starmer’s chronicles

Probably way past it by now, which would show if those doing polls etc actually didn't keep asking the 'right' sort of people in order to get the result they wanted.

Here we go. She's bigger than the roll she's in which puts pressure on the one up, Starmer. You can't save your face and your arse at the same time. Both of which could look like PM Rayner :shocked:

I wonder if they are capital gains tax issues with the transfers and selling of the property.

Re: Starmer’s chronicles

Setting up a trust and putting the property in the trust is also a way of circumventing inheritance tax.

I know this because I am also looking at this option.

I don’t fancy it , because you don’t then own the property, the trust does. And there’s a whole myriad of potential issues you need to mitigate against.

But, it is an option.
