POINTS OF DISORDER #2
THAT Philip Hammond’s company contributed a pathetic £5,964 tax on £1.6million profits raises disturbing questions about the wealthy Chancellor’s commitment to firms paying fair.
The measly 0.4% effective rate might be legal but it is way below the 20% imposed on a bus driver, nurse or call centre worker.
Hammond can have no complaints when people ask if he is really going to crack down on loaded individuals and big firms sidestepping tax when his personal interests appear to clash with the national interest.
