Now I have one that saves me a shedload of tax.
The reason that I use tax avoidance schemes is that I would otherwise be taxed unfairly (I believe) highly.
[B]If the government wants to stop tax avoidance they should simplify the rules. The same flat rate (somewhwere in the 10-20% range) for everyone. It would be fair, transparent and I suspect that it would raise far more revenue
Yeah too simple maybe, just like putting VED on petrol...
