Rock The Boat 1,325 Posted November 8, 2019 2 hours ago, Ian said: Well, it's interesting that you think so. I have a full-time job, and also support a business in which I am a director and 50% shareholder, which employs a handful of people. I personally don't draw a salary from this, and my shares do not earn a dividend. We are self-funded and have no external investors. Whilst my business partner runs things full-time, I regularly work 60 hour weeks (and very often more) to support our products, and am absolutely essential to the revenue streams keeping our business afloat. In addition to corporation tax, we also pay substantial VAT on our services rendered. Our employees are employed on a full-time basis, and as I'm sure you're aware, we contribute revenues via employer's NI, pension contributions and so on. At some point I hope to be able to switch to a full-time position, although this is some way off. I can assure you that we certainly do not take huge salaries and dividends from our company, and I know of other small businesses who operate in the same manner simply for tax efficiency. If corporation tax begins to increase, along with increases in personal taxes for higher earners, we would re-assess the business in its entirety and either convert to a partnership arrangement or simply chuck things in altogether. I certainly wouldn't bother working so many hours without financial compensation to try and build for the future, when I could be "living the dream" on a four-day week, and I am fairly sure my business partner would feel the same. I cannot begin to tell you the amount of unpaid time, effort and stress we have contributed over the last decade or so to get to even the modest place we are today, and it is very frustrating to be lumped in with serial tax-dodgers like Amazon and Facebook, who I doubt would even feel the impact on a corporation tax increase anyway. You are free to call BS if you like, but quite frankly we should be looking at tax reductions on small companies turning over less than a few million, not increases. The real issue is that neither the Conservatives, or Labour (in all their bluster) actually have the nuts to do anything about the big boys when they know how much revenue is contributed in other means via PAYE and VAT, and the revenues that trickle down to the smaller sub-contractors. Instead Labour try to appeal to a certain demographic by promising an increase in corporation tax, knowing full well that it isn't the problem. Excellent post, Ian, and that last paragraph is absolutely spot on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They're just the ones I can think of off the top of my head, but anyway, the thread in question has long since gone so I'm happy for you to pretend it never happened!

keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted November 8, 2019 My Grandson asked me why people who work for someone else, have to use PAYE, have a mortgage, a house that goes up and down in value depending on somebody panicking in Docklands and are told the yare spending more than they are worth . . . ever vote Conservative? He asked me, Don't they realise that is why so many younger people would rather believe Corbyn than Johnson and his cohorts and why they will vote Labour.
