Yup if only the big breweries back then had grown beards and made it "Craft Red Barrell" they'd have got away with selling gassy kegged crap for a premium price too

Pensions is a good example - you can argue about the fairness of 40% relief maybe - but tax relief for private pension contributions at the basic rate make sense all round. Means that us poor private sectors pensioners have an incentice to put away for our retirements (that public sector Final salary and/or defined contribution schemes don't need) which hopefully maens we'll have a decent enough (and taxable) income in retirement to not have to rely totally on the state... Tax avoiding tossers we are of course.....

Yup. Well said....... but i think you mean 'avoid', those are all legit

bow tie....dinner parties (but probably not the bloke cooking to be fair)

Paying Cash IS Evasion Loz - I'd add giving money to a charitable trust - say for arts,- donating to charity, investing in films etc all as legitimate tax avoidance that give more choice etc and create different positive outcomes rather than 'the state' just decising what and who gets what. However buying wine and clever switching of bonuses etc are all avoidance but feel far less savoury. The hysterical and typical ignorance and normal sh1te on Social media abouty this depresses me. But it would be better if they changed the semantics around 'avoidance'.....

44 or so, I'd say :)

Loz, it's not 1987 mate

But youth culture is mainly about dancing and drugs and sex and dressing diiferent and feeling part of something.....the political dimensions attached to youth culture are well overplayed by sociology lecturers (as I well remeber from a Sociology degree in the 80s :) )

Still nice to see a Deed of Varition is not tax avoidance according to weasly worded hypocrites - handy for Millibands and Benns whose 'marxist' dad's set these up for exactly what reasons other than reducing IHT? Beats me.

It's a Valentine weekend Gotta be Mr Luuuuuuuuuuuuuurve https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5MVj0jnNqo Your sweetness, is my weakness

West Ham are out - If we'd held on against Utd, possibly. Champs -Chelsea 2nd - City 3rd - Arsenal 4th - Liverpool or Spuds I just can't believe Man Us piss poor play and hugely lucky run of results (Arse, Saints and us all creamed them yet they got 7 points!) can be maintained

So it pervades the tory Party but not the Labour party?...only one of them's had a female leader* and that was 40 years ago, which kind of illustrates your point minus the partisan line *although I know 'that woman' doesn't count among the right-oners

Lambert sacked

I'm amazed that the dirsruptive technology of the Internet hasn't destroyed the EA business model yet....gotta come soon. Good articles on this somewhere recently but can't remeber where?

Nope that's my memory - mid 80s. When they launched Next Direct especially that was a compulsory Yuppie catalogue to have...and up there wityh house prices in dinner party conversations....at laest one of those tedious sujects no longer features at dinner parties,,,,infact, do people do dinner parties (very 80s alongside Black Tie parties/balls)

Re Football prices, I think they will come down as a result of the deal but right now West Ham are one of only 3 clubs in the Premiership to offer adult tickets for ?20 (C list fixtures admiitedly)I can't knock them too much. aAd when we move to OS I think they'll offer great deals to fill it so I am looking forward to a family season ticket type deal.

If Russell Brand (aged 39) is a spokesman for modern youth culture (and i'm not sure he is to be honest)

If Russell Brand (aged 39) is a spokesman for modern youth culture (and i'm not sure he is to be honest) it shows how impoversihed modern youth culture is. Hipster isn'y really youth culture is it? It seems to skew towards thirty somethings and is revoltingly white and middle-class to be much of a propa youth culture...

Never Trust a Hippy.....

Harperson in being clueless again shocker
