I read that some footballers use the old Director’s loan tax avoidance route. I don’t know if that’s true or not. Surely people wouldn’t do that at the same time as insisting less creative taxpayers should pay more?
Stop voting for fucking Tories

Patel breaks the ministerial code, check notes <<again>>.
Patel breaks the ministerial code, check notes <<again>>.
Boris Johnson to set out decision on Priti Patel inquiry
Prime Minister Boris Johnson is expected to set out his decision later on the findings of an inquiry into the conduct of Home Secretary Priti Patel.
Sources familiar with the Cabinet Office report told the BBC it concluded Ms Patel broke rules on ministers' behaviour.
She has always strongly denied allegations of bullying.
Labour has written to the Commons standards committee calling for a fresh investigation.
Normally if a minister breaches the code they are expected to resign. But a number of Tory MPs have rallied to Ms Patel's side, describing her as a determined person doing a tough job.
Mr Johnson has backed Ms Patel so far and BBC political correspondent Jessica Parker said there was "little sign" that would change.
...
Another source who saw the report called it "unambiguous in stating that Priti Patel broke the ministerial code and that the prime minister buried it".

It's anti-bullying week, too. But she's going nowhere.

Odd how you're choosing to pick up on this 11 days after the original post, especially given your ever presence on the bored elsewhere. Almost as if something else needs distracting from.
I would have thought Tories would have a raging hard on for footballers. A better example of social mobility and self made men exploiting their talents and circumstances to the full you couldn't find.
Also, they pay all the taxes they're legally required to, I think that's the line, no?

Yep. The PM had already said that before the investigation was half way through. He's a man of his word.

A nice little chunk of (personally untaxed) cash there. No clarity of total revenue though as it’s submitted as exempt from full accounts.
But I’m sure he will be paying it (and the rest which was there) directly to himself as paye and NI income surely to help pay for those school lunches, right?

Why? Is he also a hypocrite in this too, who demands more tax money to the pay for school lunches whilst avoiding tax himself?
We need to pay more to them .. but just not me.

The attacks on Rashford from the Right were predictable, as a private citizen you don't get to call out a Tory government and get off scot-free, you get their hounds after you and the government start briefing against you.

....................another resignation!! He's not important to the blonde slug so he won't give a toss. Not a good look mind you
Sir Alex Allan, the prime minister’s independent advisor on ministerial standards, has quit following Johnson’s refusal to sack Priti Patel according to reports.
It comes after a Cabinet Office inquiry into allegations of bullying and harassment by the home secretary found that she had broken the ministerial code.
In the report, Sir Alex advised that Patel had not consistently met “the high standards required by the Ministerial Code of treating her civil servants with consideration and respect.”
It added that her approach on occasions had amounted to behaviour “that can be described as bullying in terms of the impact felt by individuals”.
“To that extent her behaviour has been in breach of the Ministerial Code, even if unintentionally.”

There's also a very nasty racist angle to it from the likes of the Daily Mail. Phil Foden buys a big house for his mother? Boy done good looking after his deal old mum.

"Time to form a square around the Prittster"
Fucking hell, Empire invoking dead cat right there. Next thing they'll be wrapping the colours around them as a waistcoat to stop the enemy from carrying it off.
I suspect they'll put more effort into the square than they did the protective ring around the care homes.

Did you ever see her on question time wanting to bring back the death penalty and being taken apart by Ian Hislop.

I’ve met her in person numerous times, I’ll judge her being personable from that rather than Question Time.

All of them. The Government made deals with 6 Companies early on for the first doses of their vaccine and then made a deal with Pfizer and Moderna when their came first. The issue is why make the conflict of interest when ensuring being first in line for the Vaccines is about the only great thing the Government got right in this pandemic.fishfoodie wrote: ↑Mon Nov 09, 2020 4:22 pm Luckily the UK has more Tory Scum running their Vaccine program !
and surprise, surprise; she has a massive conflict of interest.The Torygraph wrote: Vaccine tsar Kate Bingham has spent £670,000 on PR consultants in a decision which was not signed off by ministers, it has emerged.
Boris Johnson appointed Ms Bingham as the chair of the Government's vaccine task force during the peak of the first wave of coronavirus in May.
From June, the former venture capitalist and wife of Conservative minister Jesse Norman, has used eight full-time consultants from Admiral Associates - a London PR agency - to oversee her media strategy, according to the Sunday Times.
Scum !The Times wrote: The head of the government’s vaccine taskforce has failed to publicly declare that she manages private investments in two companies involved in the race to develop coronavirus drugs.
Kate Bingham is a managing partner at SV Health Investors, a venture capital firm. Two months after she was appointed by Boris Johnson, she said it was the “perfect time” to launch a fund that invested in a company researching coronavirus antibody cocktails, The Times can reveal.
The Sunday Times reported last week Ms Bingham had shown government documents to US investors at a $200-a-head virtual conference. Ministers did not sign off on her appearance, although Ms Bingham said that had she received approval from officials at the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS).
Will the UK get, the best vaccine, or the one that it's vaccine czar has invested in ?

“Facts are meaningless. You could use facts to prove anything that's even remotely true.”
The MPs hide behind the fact that their remuneration is set by an independent panel.
Nobody ever reminds them that nurses' pay used to be set by an independent panel as well, until the Tories abolished the panel because they didn't like the fact it was recommending pay rises.
And are there two g’s in Bugger Off?
