Tax Research UK
Lawyers understand that this country is corrupt. So do medics. It’s time other professions did as well.

I can accuse the government of being corrupt without fear now, because the evidence supports my case. And that’s profoundly worrying.

    Don't mess with people's lives, don't mess with 'trickle down'.

    Yes and tipping in the US plays a similar role. It's built into the system.
