  1. Billionaires paying 30k tax with their spouse being in charge of a countries financial meltdown.

    What a man of the people rishi is.

  2. I’d sooner pay £30K a year than pay 37% tax on my foreign earnings. I’d do it in heartbeat if it was worth it. Fair play to her.

  3. The establishment are coming under increasing scrutiny these days. I believe it’s the significant fall in standards of living being felt by the middle-classes that is the cause.

  4. For tories there is always one group who the law protects but does not bind; and another group the law binds but does not protect.

    You can be pretty sure when the 15 years allowed for non-dom status are up the Sunaks won’t be living in the UK *because then they would have to pay taxes.*

  5. Fucking mockery of laws and taxes. While this idiot raises my NI contribution along with all the bills already making life difficult, his billionaire corrupt wife avoids paying any tax! Wtf. How corrupt is this country when your own chancellor is a blatant tax evader!

    I can keep going on answering ppl who try to argue that this is not corruption. So either they themselves are corrupt or plain stupid. In that case there is no point arguing or explaining my point. PEOPLE WHO KNOW…..KNOW.

  6. I have no problem with this I do have a problem when his wife is a Indian citizens, you would call this inside trading just not right he would not get my vote if he puts himself forward for PM

  7. > Tax lawyers also dismissed Ms Murty’s claim that her non-dom status is a consequence of her Indian citizenship, pointing out that she has chosen to adopt it.

    Argue the morality of it all you like, but these tax lawyers must surely know that Ms Murty’s non-dom status does, in fact, derive from her Indian citizenship.

  8. Murty does what every rich person does. Limits tax exposure (Panama papers?).

    That in itself is not a crime (whether it should be is a question).

    What *is* dodgy is that this is the *Chancellor of the Exchequer* and no member of his immediate family residing in the UK should be dodging taxes.

    His argument that he is ‘fair game, but his family should not be’ is a tad weak.
