Yep, just remember this act when your tax bill goes up. I'm sure you will.
As a self employed person I’d have no qualms about my tax bill rising. I would then expect to able to claim sick pay and unemployment benefit should the situation arise. I was out of work a few years back, filled in the relevant claim forms, waited a while before receiving a letter stating that I was entitled to £0.00 benefit, very helpful. Tax paid up to date as well as N.I. contributions, yet no help at all. It’s been a hard old slog sometimes over the years being self employed, we work whilst ill, raise our tax but give us the benefits as well.
Pretty sure my tax bill will be going up to pay for all the 80% help the PAYE are getting, so why not help the SE'ed with the same 80% ? ? ?
They are helping the Self Employed.
Only if through PAYE...
If you're PAYE you aren't self employed!
Yea, i realised that when i posted this
Yes, and now you will be taxed fairly and equally with the PAYE. Let's hope some of those who are self-employed start declaring their real earnings from now on - hopefully they have realised that the taxes they are avoiding could have bought some valuable equipment for the NHS.
B,Ah, the self employed who rarely use the NHS because they have no safety net of sick pay or unemployment benefit while paying their taxes and NI contributions and very often have to drag themselves to work when feeling ill. Have you ever been self employed and fended for yourself without the umbrella of an employer? A lot of self employed people work in industries that only offer this method of employment, they aren’t doing it through choice, many work week to week and are stopped 20% of their gross, no chance of fiddling that. Outdoor workers have just been through the wettest Autumn/Winter on record decimating their earnings, now they have to wait until June for financial help. Yeah, let’s all knock the self employed, the ones you need if your boiler breaks down during Christmas week, your electricity goes pop on a Saturday afternoon, you need your car repaired at a reasonable cost, pissing down with rain and your roof springs a leak, a garden or front wall suddenly starts leaning precariously, the hairdresser who on the morning of a wedding will call to a house at 6am in the morning and do the hair of about twenty women in a few hours, the milkman out delivering in all weathers......Yep, all selfish pricks, let’s get rid of them all!!!!!!
