Budgetamania 2018

I would like to see a return to tax on gambling.

It used to be 10 percent and it needs to return

Driving, drinking smoking all gets taxed but gambling which is a huge problem amongst young men is somehow exempt. What the fuck is that about.

Corp tax needs dropping for brexit purposes. So many companies have shut up shop and legged it to Dublin. Need the city to stay strong for the economy.

Self employed will get stiffed.

I bet there’s no increase on gambling.

The self employed deserve to get stuffed to some degree.

Why?

Why?

They get away with shit loads of tax dodging basically.

I’m self employed and there is no tax dodging. Spent this month doing quarterly EU VAT returns. I almost cried.

Budget will be a nothing burger with some flashy gimmicks to distract us from the lack of substance.

I wonder what the dead cat will be that we'll concentrate on whilst hiding a stealth tax or 6?

That's horseshit, sure they get some tax breaks but they don't get any of the freebies that employees get. No paid holidays, they create work and jobs, they don't just show up for a pay cheque...I could go on but I've had too many beers

Likewise.

I pay all my taxes (including new dividend tax) and get no holiday or sick pay.

That’s my choice to be self employed but I don’t fleece the taxman and i don’t experience a system that works in my favour.
