someone’s going to be the Lord and someone’s going to be the shit house attendant…..it’s been that way since Adam was a lad !

But, as long as they have the opportunity to get forward and ain’t punished for it then that’s fair. 
 

Im a nobody, but I still don’t want to get f****d in the arse and as far as I’m concerned the more money my customers have then the greater opportunity I have to make plenty of sales…..I don’t want a share in misery just because a bloke has a million quid more than me. 

And someone should be there to make sure the shit house attendant gets his dues because if the lord didn’t have to pay him he wouldn’t. WILF there’s people making money every day at different things. There’s people going broke every day and there people who just love an excuse. In my opinion and from my experience the UK is a far easier country to make money in than Ireland for example. For years I was able to fiddle tax in the UK i could submit a tax return Dodgey receipts and invoices and every year was fine for 30 years. They don’t chase people the way they do in Ireland. Yet you try and say being in business in the UK is a nightmare when it simply isn’t true. You may have had a bad experience that has left a bad taste in your mouth but that’s one experience

I had a great Experince mate if I’m honest, but if you asked me “would I start a business in the U.K. today” my honest answer would be “No, it don’t make any sense” 

I know some really switched on old boys, grafted all their life, love a pound note and the buzz of chasing it and when lads like that are packing up because it’s just not worth it anymore then you know something is amiss. 

Nobody can tell me that’s healthy ? 
 

I feel sorry for all the lads working their bollocks off and just getting smashed more and more and more……having to conjure tens and sometimes hundreds of thousands out of their arse every year because some prick wants to piss it away.

Like them lads don’t have a money tree, that is their own real money !

Things have changed the days of having a container of radiators for example and someone giving you £10k cash is gone the business is still there the demand is still there but that cash isn’t. A lot of people packed in things thinking the money was gone out of it you just needed to find different ways. If your an average lad doing abit of trading or swapping and able to obtain things to sell the UK is the place to be huge population lenient tax collection and a police force that couldn’t care less

I’m sure there was a little bit more than that on offer WILF come on now be positive did you own any property that had grown in value during your time living in it or trading out of it? Were you able to give your family a decent standard of living without going paycheck to paycheck? Come on dig deep and try and talk about the good bits I’m sure their was some

I run a pest control business. I turn down or pass on 2-10 jobs daily. I could employ someone tomorrow work wise, but in reality it would be insane. The stress and liability wouldn't be worth it for the return. I earn a good living and live a good life....a life that Britain is good for.....but the point is I don't want to grow. I'm watching my back, pulling back, trying to actually earn less to reduce ridiculously hard tax situations.

My wife has a care company, she's turning down work left right and center because the taxes and liabilities simply don't make it worth it. In fact in the care industry we found it almost impossible to expand without employing advisors and companies to keep you legal.....which made her services so expensive that local people in need couldn't afford them. To make a living she would need to get council contracts and employ Africans.

So there you have two small companies, much needed with no shortage of work, both backing off and saying fck that! 

Yes Britain is fantastic to live, work and screw a living.....hence why half the world wants to come here. But those born and bred here, with a strong work ethic can see that behind the immediate situation of Britain being a land of opportunity for some,there lies a really worrying situation that is totally unsustainable and those same switched on people would do well to pay of debts, watch their backs, go somewhere else, reduce liability in business and make sure that they.....as the fckin engine room of a nation..... have savings and private health care/plans for the future and ways to hedge their retirement..... because even short to medium term this situation is rapidly steaming full speed into a brick wall

That wouldn’t be terrible imo.

And Lowe time and time again proves he puts cause before party partisanship. Literally came on here to post this,

I know loads of people in exactly the same position mate. Make as close to the higher tax band as you can, employ no one if you don't have to and just keep your head down. I despair at the left wing socialist types and their politics of envy. They still haven't caught on to the fact that whilst most folks are happy to be taxed fairly, they're not there to feed a bloated state to keep migrants, workshy bstards and beurocrats in a comfy lifestyle. They also can't seem to grasp that you can't tax your way to prosperity. 300,000 more people claiming benefits since labour took office. Rarely mentioned. I'm starting to think that's another of their devious plans, if you're employed by the state or kept by the state then ultimately you're owned by the state.

100%

Also owed by the banks when everything you own is on credit. All they have to do is raise interest rates and blame it on whoever is in parliament of 'scaring the markets' . Like they did with Truss.
