Point 1 you admit some companies will pay tax at reasonable rates - BP paid 12bn in 2012 - even though they have the option to relocate to a zero tax environment?

Second point you also admit that the tax take has increased - for whatever reason.

That is all that was required - no need for all the fog-knitting

You do realise you are making yourself look like a complete buffoon here don't you?

Hardly spivs. Most people would be propreitors of their own businesses. Governemts are manipulative. Labour started announcing rate rises in advance seemingly in order to accelerate receipts of tax.

How do you know why they did it?

We know what happened and the tax take increased pre and post the 50p rate for the reasons we both (I think) accept.

Only Sap P is stupid enough to use what happened here to suggest this proves the tax take goes up if you lower the tax rate as a general principle.

When I look as stupid as you I will start to worry!!

Your argument has been completely dismantled - sadly the only person who hasn't realised is you - typical Sin Bin chatter class.

You have yet to "crush" any argument of mine, apart from in your own imagination. And before you even attaempt to go any further, I suggest you look up the difference between 'centile' and 'quantile' (you can use wiki if you prefer).

Stop trying to compare apples with pears fool

Defeating you in debate is easy, your leftie epiphany stops you thinking straight

Increasing the personal allowance has benefitted millions of people and it isn't just a case of replacing the extra money with reduced benefits. You are the only person I know who thinks increasing personal allowances has had no tangible benefit to anyone - are you for real?

Once again you are simply making up statements that I never made. It is entirely possible that you suffer some form of neurological condition, if so I do feel sorry for you but would suggest you seek professional help

How very untypical of the tories to choose a personality to target new legislation.

Looks like Thatcher/Scargill all over again.

I wonder just how many "rich" people there are living in what few council houses that still exist?

Nah they now own a cartload of them and let them out, especially sons of ex-ministers who were involved with bringing in the policy.
