It’s as if the government doesn’t want us to work at all tax threshold is another limitation as well as having rogue umbrellas and having to pay for accountants as well is a joke they all take such a carnivorous chunk of our salary , slot us into worthless pension schemes it’s as if the accountants and agents are all in it together nearly half of what I earn half of it is taken by these unregulated companies no wonder so many freelancers that can , relocate to Portugal or other digitally friendly nomad countries I don’t blame them. Then the government harp on about investors saving the economy I mean was I not investing ??? and indeed what exactly is there to invest in ? Everything is already sold and in foreign hands Mr Putin might be putting us all out our misery soon no more ctax income tax maybe death is actually a form of tax relief
